Rob,
There is no 'copy to' command that'd copy memo fields. You should use lowlevel io :

#define TABULATE chr(9)
#define CRLF chr(13)+chr(10)
handle=fcreate(forceext(tcTable,'OUT'))
scan
 for ix = 1 to fcount(tcTable)
  lcField = field(ix)
  =fwrite(handle,transform(&lcField)+iif(ix<fcount(tcTable),TABULATE,CRLF))
 endfor
endscan
=fclose(handle)
