Dataset element index

I have a dataset that is essentially an array of fixed-length char names. Is
there a way to query the dataset for an index of a certain name? Currently
if I need to get the index of an element I have to read the whole dataset
into a char buffer which means extra work and resources (memory). Thanks in
advance.
