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. _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/1352711491.14187.140661152501693.3a14a...@webmail.messagingengine.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
