Description
The APPEND MEMO command adds the specified text file to the memo field of the current record. The <memo fieldname> of the current record in the active table is appended with the text in the file specified by <filename>. If no file extension is specified with <filename>, a '.txt' extension is assumed.
OVERWRITE
The optional OVERWRITE keyword causes the APPEND MEMO command to write over pre-existing text in the memo. Without the OVERWRITE keyword text will be appended to the memo field.
Example
append memo minutes from meeting
