BinarySearch on DataView

G

Guest

I'm looking for a way to do a BinarySearch on a DataView. The method is in Array and ArrayList but not in the DataTable, DataView classes. I know there is a Find method but that only returns a value if there is a perfect match and I want to be able to find the row that's closest.

I want to do this because I have a large data list and I want to be able to jump quickly to a particular row, ie get to the B's when I type 'B'. I would use an ArrayList, but the DataView has the filter command. If all else fails, I may end up using ArrayList and implement Filter on ArrayList

Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance
