memo field VFP to VBA with ADO

2
I've got some troubles with VBA and Excel.

I wanna show the content of a Memo field from VPF data (DBF) into an Excel's cell but it shows nothing after de procedure.

After the conection with ADO everything goes right, i can print every data but Memo's data

Is there anyway to do it ?

I've tried every method: trim, replace, left cuts, right cuts but they don't work.

Thanks for any reply for advance.

Excel has a limit of 255 characters of text in any one cell, so it is strange you are seeing nothing at all - I would have expected truncation of the text instead of none at all to show.

You mention that you have tried various things; could you replace your direct reference to the memo field with LEFT([yourmemofield], 255) and see what happens? If it is still nothing we would need to see your code to consider why you are not transferring such simple text data.
