In the Palm world, "table" is actually the name for the grid equivalent, so I think you're talking about a database here :-) If you've been using SF, I've noticed they don't use the same terminology. But yes, that's essentially it (alphabetic lookup may still return very large result sets, though, depending on your data). What performance you get is down to data structures and algorithms, but at least you can dust off the text books for that :-) Such things are more easily done in an environment such as CW, gcc or PocketStudio that let you get at the full API, and are fully fledged programming languages.
