Apparently.. importing DBF data fields work fine those MEMO fields if my DBF file memo fields are of DBT format... that which is DbaseIII and Clipper.. FoxPro uses FPT extension...

Sounds that I need a utility to convert my Fox dbfs .. Have any FM programmers come up against this and anyone know of a converter

Try one of the other file export formats from you database, FileMaker will accept many different file formats. BTW, you usually can't go wrong with a text export and import.

Where I am right now...

Export Fields Ok.. but what about those memo fields? I found that my FoxPro dbf fields data imports fine except FoxPro memo fields or file having the extension of FMT.. and FM supports DBT associated with Clipper & DbaseIV formats.. not neccerrary VFP memo's .. So I open Foxpro files exporting them to DbaseIV formats first...

Now I hope to get memo DBT fields,, and if I do'nt I suppose, then I can write a loop saving individual record memo to Text, then get and save to FMP field..
