You haven't described what you are searching for. Normally you would
pack one search entry per database record, or N entries.
I don't understand about your search program. Why can't you modify
it? If your search program (or whatever) requires monolithic data,
there is no way to do something over 64k (except os 3.5).
FileStreams can handle arbitrary sized data, but they don't create
monolithic blocks - they function like the stdio fopen/fread type
calls.
