Subject: Searching/Filtering Palm database records

I need to filter a Palm PDB containing 50 records based on a unique
key identifying each record. I donot want to filter in in memory; but
rather at the database level like a RDBMS SQL select query .. Most
probably i would need to get only one record at a time based on the
query which is based on unique key.
Palm "databases" aren't actually databases, just a memory mapped files.
APIs exist to sort the file and to random search it.
Look at the Dm... functions in the documentation.
