[comp.misc] Global Searching Algorithm Needed

rcj@attctc.Dallas.TX.US (Robert Johnson) (11/16/89)

I am in need of an efficiant global searching algorith, preferably in
pascal, but simply a good method of opperations would be appreciated.
What I mean by a 'global searching alogorithm' is what free form 
databases (i.e. Broderbund's MemoryMate [great program, BTW]) use to search
through uncorrolated free form data to find the key.  If I am making any
sense at all (I doubt it, I know what I'm talking about though, just
not how to do it!), then I would really appreciate some pointers.

         Thanks,
             Robert C. Johnson
