hi kevan,
are you sure that a simple list with all the member names would make any
difference for the memory?
e.g. 2000 strings à 12 chars would be 24000 bytes, plus some director
overhead, so let's say 30 KB, which is almost nothing compared to image
data etc.
in a simple test it took director just a millisecond on my computer to
find outh that a certain string didn't exist in a list of 2000 stings
(tExists= tTestList.getPos("someString"))
cheers,
valentin
