Hi

I am exporting a table from Access to DB4 format and when I
attempt to open the table in my program it pops two messages
the first is the Convert Memos dialog box which I was able to get around using
SET Compatible foxplus NOPROMPT
The second; however, I can not fiqure out how if possible to get around it. The first part of the message is
Remove dBASE 'soft' carriage returns from memos?

Any help on how to get passed the message without a user having to respond to the message would be great.

Thanks,
Anthony
 
The obvious suggestion would be not to use DB4. Export to VFP thru ODBC or export to a text file and append it to a VFP table if you know the structure.

You could also insert KEYBOARD '{ENTER}' CLEAR immediately before you open the table and it would be as if the user clicks 'Yes' at the prompt. Jon Hawkins
