>Thanks! I think I asked too quick...I figured it out with some help from MS (Q108824). I wasn't sure if a variable in VFP could handle more than 256 characters...That's a good question, What is the limit of a VFP 5.0 Char Data-Type Var? Can it handle whatever the memo fields accumulate to? is it limited only by RAM? I used SCATTER MEMVAR MEMO and then dumped M.Notes into _ClipText and inserted CHR(13) in between each item's memo.

Char variable is limited by RAM, AFAIK. Char field could not be longer than 255 chars.
