Pick list with size > 64K

by eljainc <eljainc@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Oct 24, 2007 at 04:42 PM

I have run into a problem.

I have a function in a program that will show a list, and allow the
user to pick a number from it. The numbers run sequentially, starting
at 1, 2, 3...

Each item in the list is a string and has a length of 5 (so 6 bytes
per item). That means that a 64K array will hold approximately 10,921
items. I want to be able to have over 20,000 items in a similar type
of list. Clearly, this won't work.

What are some other ways of having a list with thousands of items?
Are there any list libraries that allow for more than 64K of data?

Thanks

Mike
