Jay,

Try this:

use (yourtable)
local oForm
oForm = Createobject('_Form',(GeneralFieldname))
lctext=oForm.myOLe1.OBJECT.Content.Text
oForm.release
REPLACE (memofield) WITH lctext
Return
*----------------
Define Class _Form As Form
	PROCEDURE iNIT
		LPARAMETERS pGenFieldName
		this.addobject('myOLe1',"OleBoundControl")
		this.myole1.ControlSource = ALIAS()+'.'+pGenfieldName
	ENDPROC
Enddefine

>I have a word document placed into a General field, but want the contents (text) copied over to a Memo field. I can manually double-click on the contents of the the General field, highlight all the text and then copy/paste into the Memo field, but I want to do it progmatically. Can this be done? Thanks!
