Having a discussion with other developers and I found an index on a free table that was
UNIQUE. Perhaps it's left over from Fox 2.x days, but I'm trying to remember why I've
got this memory that it was a "no-no" and to be avoided? I'm trying to find a
copy of HackFox but thought I'd post here in the meanwhile...
SET DELETED ON
Create a table, Names with field fname c(10)
INSERT INTO Names (fname) values("bob")
INSERT INTO Names (fname) values("bob")
INSERT INTO Names (fname) values("bob")
INSERT INTO Names (fname) values("alice")
INSERT INTO Names (fname) values("carol")
INSERT INTO Names (fname) values("ted")
INSERT INTO Names (fname) values("sue")
INSERT INTO Names (fname) values("sue")
BROWSE
INDEX on fname TO crap unique
SET INDEX TO crap
BROWSE
Delete the "bob" row
BROWSE
* oops! we have NO "bob!"
INDEX on fname TO crap unique && Let's rebuild the index - that will
fix it, right?
BROWSE
* oops! we have NO "bob!"
Unique = BAD
