I might be able to suffer with the chunk specification for the line#, then use a repeat for each item and put 2500 items in an array. That way I will only need 2500 array items at any one time instead of 125,000,000 array items per data file. But I will still have to put 125,000,000 items into array elements and then read them back out again once per data pass. Perhaps 10-100 times slower than an "access" keyword instead of 1000-10,000 times slower. I will do some sample tests and see what I come up with.

Dennis,
I once used the split function to create almost instant arrays based on 1, 2, 3, etc... as the locations created by the split, ( I call them locations because I'm an old Director user.) This process could work well when you put "2500 items in an array." The split function creates the array without a loop process.
