Or you could use ALINES.

m.ctext=[field 1|field 2||field 4|field 5|field 6]
?ALINES(anarray,m.ctext,2,[|])
DISPLAY MEMORY LIKE anarray*

Subject: Text file import

Hello everyone,

I need to setup a job to import a pipe delimited text file. This is easy enough 
but one of the fields is larger than 254 characters. If I use a memo field, it 
does not import that field. I started to setup a routine to step through each 
character and store the fields manually but I would rather not do it that way.

Does anyone have a function or tip they can share to resolve this situation?
