I'm not clear what you want to do here from your description, but a few questions will clear things up.
1. Your current ebook is an html file that has a main table of contents page with all alpha letters on it. Each alpha letter goes to another page with the list of drugs (each drug with a seperate page), or are the drugs shown underneath each alpha letter on the table of contents?
2. You want to have an iSilo file for "A", another file for "B", etc. and each of these files has all the drugs within that alpha letter as child pages.
If the drug pages are all text, you can load a bunch of pages into iSilo if you have an expansion card. You didn't mention what PDA you have. I have a couple of iSilo files that contain hundreds of pages, and while large (biggest one is 8mb), they do work just fine residing on my memory stick.
Let me know if my assumptions are correct. There are a couple of ways to go if you truly want to split up your file: one is to write some exclusions in the iSiloX file, but that's a lot of work. The other, if you have access to the html code within your ebook, is to do a little html rebuild to get the html ebook into the form you want to use on isilo, then convert each alpha letter.
