Memo field causes corruption?

[evander]

Hi guys!

I just found out today that memo fields may cause database corruption. Is that even true?

I used a couple of memo fields in my DB project, but that's only for storing the address of customers. Users will not update those memo fields every minute of the day. Those fields are only supposed to act as "lookup" values for given customer codes.

Should I keep my memo fields? Or totally replace them with text fields?



Hoping for a response. Thanks a lot.

It sounds to me like you should have these addresses in Text fields and not a Memo field.
