Rex,
You can create a function that that does what you want and also returns the value of memo field and reference it in the field expression instead of memo field. Something like
myfunction(mymemofield)
...
FUNCTION myfunction(tcMymemofield)
...
RETURN tcMymemofield

>What I am trying to do is to set up an automatic index function call. This will be used when the memo is printed to call the function to add the index value to a database that will be used at the end of the report to print a second report. The call needs to be in the report to know the page number value (_page). Obviously, the 'trigger value' must not print on the report.
