Hi!

I would suggest packing in larger records (like others have suggested), and then use your own binary search to find your record (assuming of course they are pre-sorted). If your data is read-only and all records have the same size this is not difficult to implement.

good luck.

I am new to Palm databases. Here's my questions:

1) I need to import about 30,000 records onto a Palm TX. Can anyone recommend a 
software tool that I could use to import these records from MS Excel and export 
it to a pdb file that the Palm OS will be able to read?

2) My program needs to search through this database of 30,000 records and find 
one unique record. Each database record will consist of one unique number. Is 
there any way to do this using the DmGetRecord() or DmQueryRecord() functions 
and have it cycle through all of the indexes?

Thanks!
