Hi Mark,

Provided you keep a strict control of the format of the memo field, you should be able to do it.

In the example you gave, assuming that the name of the memo field was repcode, the following should change the value of lSummary to .T. and add a new line.

REPLACE repcode WITH STUFF(repcode,AT('lSummary',repcode)+12,1,'T')
REPLACE repcode WITH repcode + 'cDbf = "Fred.dbf"'+CHR(13)

Easy isn't it? Changing the way you use spaces between records will however screw things up nicely. To cope with this, more coding is needed.
