SYMPTOMS

When you use the debug window to display the contents of a memo field, you can put the name of the memo field in the left pane, but the contents do not appear in the right pane.

RESOLUTION

To see the text of a memo field, enter either of the following expressions in the left pane of the debug window: 

   <tablename>.<memofldname> + ""

   -or-

   MLINE(<tablename>.<memofldname>,1)

STATUS

This behavior is by design.
