Ole and anyone else interested:

I solved this problem by creating a poor man's index. As the font records were being read in from the text file, I took note of which lines each Alphabet letter started on. For example:

Arial
Annabelle
Benguiat

I recorded the fact that the Bs started on line three. Then I retooled the repeat to start looking at that record in the font list. Works like a charm! Regardless of the record, retrieval time was next to no time and the actual reading in did not take perceptibly longer.

Thanks for all your help, folks.

John
