You shouldn't have to import the table... you can open it in VFP and the memo field should be converted automatically. You can work with a copy if you don't want you originaly file converted.

From the VFP docs:

Before you can append from a table created in dBASE IV or dBASE V that contains a memo field, you must first open the table in Visual FoxPro with USE. When you are prompted to convert the file, choose Yes.

If you append from a Visual FoxPro table or a table created in an earlier version of FoxPro, the table you append from can be open in another work area. Records marked for deletion in the table you are appending from are unmarked once the records are appended.
