Hi all
I have a table with a memo field. It contains ca. 970 records and the size of the FPT is ca 230KB. I added 161 records to the table, populating the memo field with several lines of text (the total size of all the text added was ca 700KB). In each case the memo field was a single replace (no memo = memo + ..., no replace memo with .... Additive). The FPT ended up as 234MB but a PACK MEMO reduced this to ca 935KB.
The trouble is that this is a widely used table in a multi-user environment and it would be impractical to use PACK MEMO on a regular basis. Blocksize is set to 64.
Any suggestions or comments would be very welcome. Thanks in advance.
