Hi Greg,

Indexing in a desktop format is usually an app specific feature. FME may or may 
not be able to build MapInfo indicies technically,
but I don't think they want to bother with it. After all, the data produced by 
FME are always new tables, and as such have no
intrinsic definition of indicies. But I'm pretty sure you can't make FME create 
the indicies (anyone please correct me if I'm
wrong).

But you can easily create multiple indicies by utilizing the MapBasic command 
CREATE INDEX, e.g. in a workspace (i.e. macro/script)
file :

!Workspace
!Version 300
!Charset WindowsLatin1

Create Index On MyTable1(MyColumn1)
Create Index On MyTable1(MyColumn2)
Create Index On MyTable2(MyColumn1)
Create Index On MyTable2(MyColumn2)
Create Index On MyTable2(MyColumn3)
etc.

Subject: MI-L .ind file and FME






G'day all,

I am using FME to reproject our .tab files.  The .ind files do not get
recreated.  The reprojected files are created in a new directory.

How do I get FME to recreate/copy the .ind file along with the reprojected
files?

If FME can't do this, is there another method through MapInfo/MapBasic,
without having to do it manually for each .tab?

Thanks
Greg.
