Hi Stewart, Sorry for the delay, I've been away for a bit. >The search method you are refering to is know as a binary search. If you let >me know what you are trying to do I may be able to help. I missed the start of >this thread. Basically I have a long list of words, alphabetically sorted, and I wish to find a particular word in the list. My hope is to find a new method which would be faster than the binary search method. -John
