🙂 I can't remember the proper name either. I've used this method in the
past, I was just hoping for something better. Guess it's just a matter of
expanding my horizons. Thanks for your reply, it's nice to know I can get some
help when I need it 🙂

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.
