Yes. However, if you just have to have more than 1, you can create a supplemental table with just 2 columns -- keyid [which is really just a FK reference to the parent table] and a LONG data type column. There would be a 1-to-1 relationship between the 2 tables.

While I do not know what your needs are, but I can say that I have never had a need for multiple memo fields in any 1 table.
