Hi,

My users have reported memo corruption after using 'Copy and Paste' to select text from Web pages and paste them into my VFP application. This appears to be due to hidden control codes on the web page.

Has anybody come across anything like this before? And if so, what is the best way to validate memo data so that only the 'raw' text is saved to the memo field once the user closes the window to which they pasted the text?

I have set up a function call that checks every character in upper and lower case (A-Z), numbers, and certain formatting charcters such as CHR(10), CHR(13) but this does slow things down a bit when large chunks of text are involved.
