The line below is what I've been using to export the selected fields 
information into a file

export multi invfile=c:\!Output\eBay\eBayInvy.slk

The field in inventory containing the memo data is 367 and what I 
initially tried was this "invfile(42)=invy(367)" but that didn't work at 
all.

Reading  the help about memos all I see is stuff about exporting the 
memo to a file which I suppose is what I'm wanting to do. Although 
nowhere did I see anything that would suit my needs to copy the syntax 
structure from.

This is what the help shows

"MEMO xx EXPORT filename    Exports the MEMO field xx to the specified 
filename"

I know it's totally wrong but from what the help says all I can dream up 
is something like this...

MEMO invy(367) EXPORT "c:\memo.txt"

Even if that was going to work which I'm pretty sure it wouldn't, , it's 
not helping with getting the memo data into my export file along with 
all of the other data being exported.

Has someone else done something like I'm describing here?

Mike
