What about throwing it into a TList or similar and only displaying what you want
out of it ...
Just a thought as I have no idea about the capabilities of a TList in the
100,000's

Has anyone worked with file lists in the millions? I'm having trouble
building an on-screen display of files once the number gets above 20K or
so.
The TListView handles the numbers, but takes ages (15 mins per 100,000
files, getting slower as more files are added).
The TListBox is fast but croaks after 10K files in everything except Win2k.
I can generate the file list in memory in a matter of seconds, but can't
find a quick way to display them on screen. If worst comes to worst I'll
use
a TDrawGrid since it seems to handle the numbers and is quick, but that
strikes me as an ugly way to do it.
Any ideas?
Luke Pascoe.
