How do they get around the Progress CRC error???? Any Progress code
that accesses the changed field should have to be recompiled. Unless
the conversion from Memo to Character doesn't change the CRC, due to
some strange relation with the two types.
Could you please post the instructions.
Thanks,
Lonnie
