Thank you for the responses:

What I find strange though, and the reason I posted, is that the JOIN field DID have an index TAG in the CDX with a TAG name that differed from the field, and the Query was slow.

Once I added an additional Index tag, on the same field, with a TAG name that equaled the field,
the query ran faster... very strange.

Yes, that's exactly correct.  For Rushmore to kick in, the left side of
your condition must match a tag's fields.  The tag name is irrelevant.

So in your example, TABLEA must have an index on FGITEM.  The tag name does
not matter.

Hello all,

I know that Rushmore tech comes into play when you JOIN tables using
fields that have index tags in their respective tables.

However, does the tag have to match the name of the actual field being
indexed?
Reason I ask, in an app I support, performance was slow when joining two
tables together on one key field.

Let's say the field is:
FGITEM
The index tag is just ITEM

The Join statement had:

SELECT tableA.*, tableB.descrip FROM tableA INNER JOIN tableB on
tableA.FGITEM = tableB.ITEM

Once I added a new index TAG to tableA
FGITEM   tag FGITEM

The query ran much faster.

Does this make sense or am I misunderstanding it?

Thank you,
