SYMPTOMS
========

When you use the debug window to display the contents of a memo field, you can
put the name of the memo field in the left pane, but the contents do not appear
in the right pane.

RESOLUTION
==========

To see the text of a memo field, enter either of the following expressions in
the left pane of the debug window:

     <tablename>.<memofldname> + ""

  -or-

     MLINE(<tablename>.<memofldname>,1)

STATUS
======

This behavior is by design.
