True, but from my observations on how turba operates, it is apparent 
that whenever you select "My Address Book" or whenever you do a sort 
on any of the columns, it loads the entire contacts database into 
memory regardless of how many entries you have selected for display 
on each screen, and also regardless of whether you previously set a 
search term.

In other words, if I search for every entry in the ZIP code 12345, 
and then try to do a sort on the "Last Name" column within the 
returned results, what I then get back is the ENTIRE database sorted 
on last name, not just the entries in ZIP cod 12345.

Until you all pointed me towards the php.ini "memory limit" setup 
term, I was getting the hangup whenever I tried to do any of the 
above ... the only useful thing I could do was display only the 
entries that met a search term, I couldn't display all entries or 
even sort on a term.

Fortunately all of that is fixed now... :-)
