[AccessD] Memo/Attachment fields

Hi Mark,

I have personally experienced corruption issues with Memo fields in the 'main' table.  Since then I always put them into a separate table and link on the key.  That seems to work well. I have notice no performace hit.  Actually it might even speed things up if you are playing with the main table RS and don't need to reference the data in the memo field.

Just my thoughts.

cheers
Darryl

I saw a recommendation to always place memo fields into separate tables
linked to the main table by an FK.
Does anyone employee this technique ?
I wonder if the same applies to attachment fields (AC2007) as well ?
