Or you can try:

strtofile(table1.memofield, 'c:\apractic\junk\table1.prg')
compile 'c:\apractic\junk\table1.prg'
do 'c:\apractic\junk\table1.prg'

>>Rigth now I'm trying to put som VFP commands inside of a memo field, the idea is read that commands and execute them.

>>For example, supose that you want to put this commands into the memo:
>>
>> thisform.caption = "test"
>> thisform.backcolor = 255,255,255
>> thisform.refresh
>>
>>Well in the form I have a method that read the memo field line by line and execute those lines in order. Something like:
>>
>> a = memlines(memofield)
>> for i = 1 to a
>> mycommand = mline(memofield,i)
>> &mycommand
>> endfor
>>
>>This way runs well until it find any type of compound command like: if .. endif, for .. endfor, etc., and the macro subs can´t evaluate that.
>>
>>So I want to know if there is any other way to do that or simply I can't do that.
