Yes, but there are many other ways and algorithms to make it work faster. (for example to store (ID,index) pair and to have some additional DB sorting table). Of course I'm not trying to force OS developers to re-arrange everything for me :))) I just don't understand why it is not realized in ortder to be faster. It is very critical for large databases. thanks, Max. -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/support/forums/
