Here's a question for you. . .

I'm trying to import csv files into a ThinkDB using ThinkDB Desktop.  I want
to import fields that are memo fields but include carriage returns so that
the resulting memo isn't all concatenated to one ugly line.  Can't seem to
get ThinkDB to do it.

Even when I export an existing ThinkDB which includes said memo fields into
csv, then import that csv into a new ThinkDB, the resulting memos are one
ugly line.

Any suggestions?  Thanks in advance.

Mike A

Have you tried HanDBase to do the same?
