When you select * to a temp table. What is the size of the files? You'll know quickly if you have bloat.

Good Morning!
Have a very wide dbf with about 8 memo fields . Started acteing strange like if I tried to re-index or pack memo it would seem to go so far and then freeze!
Found a utility that seemed to repair the file. The only issue is that the DBF is 710mb and the associated memo file is 1.2gb! Yikes. Have ran a pack memo (with no issues) and there is no change in the size of the memo file, which I am assuming is boated.
1.) Is the memo file really bloated. 2.) Going to look at the individual memo fields and see if any one of the records has an unusually large memo field. 3.) Open to any other suggestion that you wise people could recommend....
TIA/Regards, Desmond
