Hi PJ (I think you might be an Aussie?)

Welcome to Cook Self Service!

Can you elaborate on how you see a 'Memo' Field type please? Are you referring to a new Cook Data Type in the Builder / Tables? You're probably aware that Cook has String, Text, and Rich Text Data Types.

Look forward to assisting you further.

G'day (Aussie True Blue here) The nic would give it away to any other Aussie???

I guess the only way I can describe a memo type field is a field similar to what you type your posts into on the forum via this site.

A field that is displayed in size that allows ease of text to be entered with multiple rows and lines. I've only just started using the application yesterday, I thought it might be a Rich Text Data Type, but due to problems I'm having in the build via sandbox I can't check to see if its what I'm after.

Cheers
PJ

I found "cook" two days ago. Played around with it for a day and then within a day got rid of two legacy applications in IBM Lotus Domino Notes and replaced them with "cook". It was really easy. A piece of cake. Actually it was even easier than cooking. Cooking involves more work than developing with "cook". What can I say about "cook"? Great application great price for what it delivers great forum with a lot of information and fast responses active and friendly community fast forward moving development cycle So what should I say "Monsieur Le Cook"? Keep the good work going it will lead to success. Having become a paying member in the words of Edith Piaf may I say ..... non rien de rien ... je ne regrette rien. Vive La France.
