If your database is a pile of cards then marking the cards is faster
than finding.
Wouter,

I will look further into marking cards; but the real issue for me is
the ability to start the search or marking process at a specific card
and stop searching/marking after reaching another specific card.
Here's why:

Rob,

I haven't tried these, but I'll bet they work:

Assume each card has a custom property "recordType" that defines the 
type of record for the data on that card.

unmark all cards
mark cards where the recordType = "foo"
mark cards where fld fldName contains yourSearch
or

unmark all cards
mark cards where the recordType = "foo" and fld fldName contains 
yourSearch

Let me know if it works.
