Preferably, the references to ranges of text are arranged in the matrix sequentially in alphanumeric order, and each reference to a range of text comprises the lower text limit. A plurality of cross-referencing data in the matrix correlate the references to the ranges of text and the references to the indexes, wherein each of the cross-referencing data correspond to a reference to a range of text and to a reference to an index. Preferably, the matrix includes attribute data and/or index data for each reference to range of text. Other embodiments of search decision tables are also disclosed, as well different uses for the search decision table.
