Usually you don't have to rebuild the index in regular intervals to prevent index corruption. To maintain high performance, regular optimizing makes sense. How often that is useful depends on your usage pattern (frequent updates -> frequent optimizations). That being said, if you have the CPU cycles and space, regular rebuilds won't hurt and will ensure your index always matches your database. Jens -- Jens Krämer webit!
