Over 10 years ago we did away with memo fields because of the common problem of memo file corruption. (Computer has a bad day or Power goes out, etc. and memo file is now trash.) We changed to using a separate, standard .DBF with each memo divided into 64 byte fields with a key.

My question is this: Are memo fields now safe? I don’t hear anything on them anymore. It used to be you would go to DevCon and someone would give an entire presentation on recovering them.

Any and all comments are welcome.
TIA
