Description
The MTOA() function reads a memo field of any size and splits it up into lines where each line is an element of the array which is returned. If the optional <expL> is .T. (true), lines ending in ';' will be joined with the following line.
The ATOM() function can be used to read an array into a memo field.
Example
use "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9\Samples\Classes\samples.vcx" goto 34 myarray = mtoa(methods) list memory create table temp (tempmemo memo) use temp append blank ? atom(myarray,tempmemo)
