Thanks for the information.

The groups in question are somewhat large, but the subgroups I'm looking for 
are comparatively
small. Basically I have H normal in N with quotient T and I am trying to find 
sections of
H -> N -> T inside N if there are any. Perhaps I could use the fact that the 
subgroups 
I'm looking for would have to constitute a transversal of H in N, but I'm not 
sure if 
that helps or not.
