>i remember there was a lengthy thread aubout this exact subject a few weeks ago here on ut. the endresult of this discussion, i believe, was that everytime you make a change, or add to a memo field, vfp completely rewrites/adds the entire contents of that field to the memo file. vfp completely ignores the 'old' stuff in the file, and you end up with blowding memo files.
Yes, MS VFP team should do something about that. It is a concern for high traffic management.
