[AccessD] Memo field corruption

[Susan Harkins]

Gustav, a question from a reader prompted my question -- remember that
article we wrote a long time ago?

It's so old -- I wonder if the memo issue hasn't improved? 

Susan H. 


That's what I have done - for pictures. I even used a second backend to hold
this single table to not bloat the main backend.

I think a lot of "expert" database developers suggest keeping the memo field
in a separate table using a 1:1 or 1:n relationship -- just in case.

Susan H.


I always include memo fields in the same table.  I haven't heard of what you
described - have you seen that done somewhere?

Dan


When you include a memo field, do you include it in the table or do you
relate to a second table that stores just the memo field?
