>Hilmar, thanks a lot. I have it working. I wonder if there a function to convert the RTF text in the memos to standard text - as needed in some basic reports. And if the memos are transfered to Word, is it poss. to translate the memo text from RTF to normal word stuff. Many thanks.


You should find that Word converts (or even just opens) the RTF file for you. Save a memo to disk with strToFile() and try it.
