But Body Shops sell ladies' toiletries! I wouldn't call them dirty! :-)
>To All,
>I want to thank everyone who gave there input here. It gives me the idea that for my application I will stay with the .DBF method. There are hundreds of computers all over the country in Body Shops (dirty environment, dead battery in the UPS, etc.) running my progam and we have little control over the customer's hardware but to recommend what they should be doing.

>>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
