Process for locating target item in a list including a plurality of items in sequence from 1 to m, including: (a) defining a range within the list including the target item, including: i) identifying a first item at location "n", where 1<=n<=m; ii) identifying a last item at location "p" where n<=p<=m; (b) identifying and displaying an item at location D=((p-n)/2+n); (c) determining location of target relative to "D". If the target is at or adjacent "D", terminate the process and display the target item; if the target is between "n" and "D", resetting "p" to "D", repeat steps (b) and (c); if the target item is between "D" and "p", resetting "n" to "D", repeat steps (b) and (c); until the target item is at or adjacent the location "D".
