[comp.databases] dBASE III memo field

ferguson@tc.fluke.COM (Ed Ferguson) (01/23/88)

The dBASE III memo field appears to print only 50 characters
across on the printer, but the full length on the screen.
I can't find a spec in the books and my application requires
75 characters across the page.  Any ideas?

In order to get past to default 50 charact3er memo width print
default, you must use the "set memowidth to" statement.

It is clearly defined in the manual (do you have one?).
