Converting Tables

Can anyone please let me know how I can do the following:-

I have some tables that I need to convert into VFP , they are .mdx .dbt
.mxx & .dbf.

When I open the dbf I get a message box asking if I want to convert the memo
to VFP, then I get remove dbase soft carriage returns from memo".

I can then open up the table.

My problem is I need to do this in code so the use does not get the prompt,
can I just convert these tables without getting the message box?

if so how ?

Many thanks

Paul

The SET COMPATIBLE command has a NOPROMPT clause that should
help you get rid of that nasty old message box.

See HELP SET COMPATIBLE
