I think you can use the Memo1.Assign(Memo2); not sure since I don't
have Delphi up and running, but its worth a shot.

Couple of different ways to do this. One way is to use the Assign method of
the TMemoField component. For example:

  Table1Notes.Assign(Table2MemoFld);

Or, if you do not define TField components for fields in your application:

TMemoField(Table1.FieldByName('Notes')).Assign(TMemoField(Table2.FieldByName('MemoFld'));

Another method would be to use TBlobStream objects. The Read method of this
object could be used to copy the contents of a memo field into a PChar (or
equivalent) variable. The Write method to copy the contents of a PChar
variable to a memo field. The fields could be in the same or different
tables. They could also be the same field in the same table, but with a
change in the record pointer between reading and writing (requiring a
single TBlobStream object be used, but freed and recreated between
records).

If you are using a DBMemo component, you can references the Lines
Property of your two memo objects, as in:

...
  for i := 0 to DBMemo1.Lines.Count - 1 do
    DBMemo2.Lines.Add(DBMemo1.Lines[i]);
...

Hope this helps.
