RE: subfile?

["Booth Martin" <Booth@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

If the subfile will contain less than 2000 or so records consider using a
loadall subfile instead of an array.  Easy to design, lightening fast to
program, lightening fast to execute, and you can have an attractive scroll
bar to navigate.  Your whole program including  selecting a subfile record
can be under 50 lines.

... I still tend to use arrays instead of subfiles, probably because of
those early 36 days, (and the impression that I have that arrays are much
more efficient than subfiles) (I was going to say fact, but have no desire
to start a holy war :-) )
