DOCUMENT:Q90956 23-OCT-1999 [foxmisc] TITLE :Specifying a Memo Field Text Editor for FoxBASE+ PRODUCT :Microsoft Fox Miscellaneous Products PROD/VER:MS-DOS:2.1 OPER/SYS: KEYWORDS: ====================================================================== ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - Microsoft FoxBASE+ for MS-DOS, version 2.1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY ======= The WP variable in the CONFIG.FX file specifies the text editor for memo fields in FoxBASE+. This variable may specify a third-party editor to create and edit memo fields. For example, to edit memo fields with Microsoft Word, place the following line in the CONFIG.FX file: WP=C:\WORD\WORD.EXE To load a work processor with FoxBASE+, enough conventional memory to load both FoxBASE+ and the word processor is required. (FoxBASE+ uses 512K and requires a minimum of 360K free memory.) FoxBASE+ cannot remove itself from memory to free space for the word processor. When the user attempts to load the word processor and not enough memory is free, an Insufficient Memory error occurs. To make additional memory available, modify the AUTOEXEC.BAT and CONFIG.SYS files to remove unnecessary drivers and terminate-and-stay-resident programs from memory.
