FoxPro "G" (General) fields

Apollo supports FoxPro type 'G' (General) fields in limited fashion. FoxPro General fields contain references to OLE linked or embedded objects that reside in a standard .FPT memo file. Apollo supports their creation with TApolloTable's CreateField method and an Apollo application will not blow up if a 'G' field is present.

However, neither saving nor loading OLE objects from 'G' fields is supported by Apollo. Apollo will recognize the field type so you may use tables that contain General fields in Apollo applications without crashing whenever a 'G' field is encountered.
