hello
i am converting one file to another from an old dos program and the old file has some empty fields that i don't want in the new file. i have been able to convert the file but it brought all the empty fields. i tried these statements with not results Please help
if trim(Len(Name)) = 0 then skip saving this record
if Len(trim(Name)) = 0 then skip saving this record
neither works Please help

Well, the second one should have worked, but it might be that there is a hidden character there, so you can't see it, but it still counts in the len ..
try adding:
replace (name,vbrclf,"")
for counter=0 to 32
replace (name,chr(counter),"")
next
if isnull(trim(Name)) then skip saving this record
if trim(Name) = "" then skip saving this record
Hope it helped ..
