Why not store the individual lines of the index card as variable size records
in the key.  That way you can have an index card of any length, insert/delete
easily, etc.  I have routines for this - the DB9 index method allows variable
length keys, and no need to link to a data file.  Data goes in key file - sorta
combined.

Just a thought...
