I have to design a database that will hold notes keyed by a user.

How about something like the following:
UNIQUE
R XPN140R TEXT('Person Notes')
PERSONID 10A COLHDG('Person ID')
CRTDATE 10A COLHDG('Date Created')
CRTTIME 10A COLHDG('Time Created')
LUPDATE L COLHDG('Date Updated')
DESC 50A COLHDG('Description')
NOTE 32000A COLHDG('Note') VARLEN
DOCREFID 12A COLHDG('Doc Ref ID')
K PERSONID
K CRTDATE
K CRTTIME
