Judith,

Another option might be to use a cursorToXml.

Then you can convert that to a comma separated file. If done right, you could
probably automate the whole things (look up the tag in the structure to
determine what type of delimiter to use.) You could even make it so you could
choose a separator other than a comma (say a tab).

Of course, depending on why you want it in a CSV format, it may be that an XML
format will work just as well.

Take care,

Fletcher

Subject: csv files and memo fields

Does anybody have an idea how I could generate a csv file programtically that
would include in it the info from memo fields. What would be the simplest way
to do this?

I also would like to take a csv file and append it to a dbf file with memo
fields. I tried converting the file to a string using strtofile and then using
a alines but the file is so big that it generates a subscript out of range
error. I am using VFP 8.0.



Thanks

Judith
