Hi Palmites, 

I have a database in which, records are stored in horizontal order. 

For ex: 

A.B.C.D.F.G.H.I.J.K.L.M.N.O.Pâ. etc. 

If I have to display the records through search (lookup), it takes a lot of 
time to find the string and load the table. Whereas address book lookup takes 
only a fraction of seconds to display the records even when the data is huge. 

I am just using two while loops: 
i) Under lookup function to search the string. 
ii) Under Load Table function to display the records. I do have 2000 strings 
stored in horizontal order. 

Kindly let me know if there is a way to make the lookup work faster. 

Thanks in Advance, 
Venkat
