I did but VFP set the memowidth to 1024 and says it wont allow the ? to exceed 256 characters. I need to create a 303 col wide text document.

Any ideas?

>>Im using VFP 5.0 to output data to a text file for a mainframe to read in. The line gets all out of whack and breaks up after i add fields making it longer than 254 characters. IS there a logical limit in vfp? Im sure_ i did very_ long file lines like this in fox for dos.
