Gregory,
My problem is not the memo fields but the fact that if I issues a
1) Sactter Namd Myobj, all fields get into MyObj

2) If I then issue a Scatter Fields Myfield6,MyField7, only 2 fields end up in the object.

(i.e. Wait Window MyObj.Myfield1 generates an error



Previously , in FPW, I I issued two commands:
Scatter Memvar
Scatter Fields MyField6,MyField7 Memvar

There was no problem with Wait Window m.MyField1

I'm wondering is there a workaround for this using Scatter Name

Regards,
Gerard
