Purpose

Add a text file to a memo field


Syntax

APPEND MEMO <memo fieldname> FROM <filename> [OVERWRITE]


See Also

COPY MEMO, MEMOREAD(), MEMOWRITE(), SET MEMOFORMAT


Description

The APPEND MEMO command adds the specified text file to the memo field of the current record. The <memo fieldname> of the current record in the active table is appended with the text in the file specified by <filename>. If no file extension is specified with <filename>, a '.txt' extension is assumed.


OVERWRITE

The optional OVERWRITE keyword causes the APPEND MEMO command to write over pre-existing text in the memo. Without the OVERWRITE keyword text will be appended to the memo field.


Example

append memo minutes from meeting
