It depends on how mangled it is. I normally:

select recno() as rec, * from bustedtable into dbf temp

Then edit the structure of the damaged table, removing the memo-type
fields. Then re-instate them, which will create a new, blank memo file. 

Then scan through the 'temp' table from above and replace the memo field
contents.

If it's *really* broken I see if FoxFix can do something.
