using memo fields on the fly?

[Dan Coutu]

I'm trying to assemble a collection of test fragments that are stored in 
fields with a (500,*) edit so that they make up a single body of text. 
Naturally this seems to fit the description of a memo field.

It seems, from what I can decipher, that you can only populate a memo 
field from a file though. I was hoping to populate it via code logic by 
appending multiple fields onto a single memo field. Is the ability to do 
this an undocumented feature or will I actually have to write the data 
to a file so that I can load it into a memo field so that I can then 
again write to a (different) file for further processing outside of filePro?

Sheesh, seems like a runaround if I have to go that way.

Thanks,

Dan
