This is what my product iDirectory does. iDirectory allows you to create
your own distributable telephone guide (or any other list of data). You
can read about iDirectory at
http://www.inspiredlogic.com/idirectory/
and download the Mac version at:
http://www.inspiredlogic.com/idirectory/idirectory_builder.hqx
I haven't had time to put up the PC and Linux demos.

<useful information>
In iDirectory, I break up the information into 1000 line chunks, then
copy and filter them for display during searches. One important benefit
of this is that, by using the send command, the search can be interrupted
at any time. That way, on slower machines, the program is still
responsive.
