Any alternative to memo fields?

I have an access database with manu tables. Some of the fields of the data
to be entered may contain more than 1000 characters of text/numbers.
IS Memo field the only alternative to storing such large amount of text. An
alternative is sought because it is said that Memo fields are prone to
corruption?
 
S N,

It is my understanding that the problems relating to Memo fields in
Access are a thing of the past. I have personally used memo fields a
lot, and have found them to be very robust.
 
I agree, the only problem with LOBs (Large OBjects) are index & replication
specific
(Access, SQL Server, Oracle...)
