>>I have a problem with a foxpro 2.6 memo field that keeps growing. The table only contains 10,000 records, but now the memo field is taking 722 MB of disk space. I think it has something to do with an overnight process that packs the database. Is there anything I can do to fix this problem.

I tried that, still the same problem. I think there must be some corruption in the memo file itself. When you perform the copy to, it seems to stop at certain records and wait, then it moves on. Thanks anyway.
