>We're using U.r.U finger scanner for our HRM systems with Payroll module. At first, we use VB with Pentacom's OCX control for interfacing with the finger scanner. If using Access MDB to handle the binary data emits by the scanner, there is no problem. With VFP table however, it can not handle the data (Memo field). This time, we tried VFP form with the same OCX control expecting it to work with DBF (Memo Binary or ordinary Memo) as field type but the data have different value. The CREATEBINARY() function does not help either.

In addition to DF's offer:
Have you assured the data in the VFP memo is valid data?
There maybe a GETCHUNK method available, check your control documentation.
