For instance, I have a list (the length is known) of components:
   Item.Name="Apple";
   Item.ID= 56789;		// Sytem generated and initialized in runtime
   ...
Now my problem is to retrieve the name for a given ID.
Is there any implementation of a list which allows to find the name of the 
item efficiently?
Any suggestion?

thanks
PC HUA
