A database management system of the present invention includes a computer having a memory and a processor, a database for storing information in the memory as field values in a record, an indexing component for referencing a plurality of records by a value of the field(s), an input device for selecting desired records by entering a range of values corresponding to the field(s) (indexed on), and a component for accessing the desired records as an order set, where only records having a value within said range are included within the set. System and methods are also described for optimizing the access of information from the database management system.
