It could be done with xbase as the others suggest. You could also copy the required data to a temporary directory and use backup to contiguously transfer data to a floppy or winzip it!

>I need to transfer a number of records from a table in one system (system 1) via floppy/email to another system (system 2). The table concerned has a memo field which needs to be transferred to system 2 as well.

>use tvp1
>append from vp1 for recno()>3000
>copy file tvp1.dbf to a:\tvp1.dbf

>To make sure that the memo contents of the selected records from vp1.dbf are transferred as well, I also include:

>and when the records from tvp1 are added to system 2, the memo field contents are added as well.

>BUT of course tvp1.fpt above includes the memo contents of ALL records in vp1.dbf, which means it is a huge file and makes for a problem with disk space etc.

>Question - Is there any way I can transfer the memo contents of the selected records ONLY in tvp1.dbf to tvp1.fpt?
