>I know DBF files cannot exceed 2g, memo files can't either, can they? I have a memo files that contains images and it is getting close. Does anyone have any ideas on how to solve this besides splitting into multiple data bases?
You are correct - AFAIK, no file component of a VFP native table can, in and of itself exceed 2GB.
You might want to look at some sort of compression on the images stored in the memo field, compressing when stored and decompressing at extraction. Many image formats compress well using various LZH compression modules; you might want to examine using something like DynaZip to compress before storing and decompress after extracting if your app can better deal with the delays from compression/decompression than running out of space.
If you've not done periodic PACK MEMO commands, you may have lots of wasted space in the FPT file. Just make sure to back it up before issuing the PACK MEMO...
