If you need to search a large list for specific records, a skip list is good. If you mean how to keep them when the program is not running, a file is the answer. If you mean how to keep them in the American Dental Association, this is the wrong place to ask. Here we discuss the programming language Ada. -- Jeff Carter "Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!"
