Working with a Memo Field

Here is what I am trying to do
filecont = objRS("contents")
filecont = replace(filecont,vbLF,",")

if i use the objRS instead of the filecont in the replace function i get the
same issue. If I do anything with this field (use InStr, or other menial
functions) I get no records can be displayed. The contents field is a memo
field within Access, i am wondering if this is causing the issue?

thanks
