In order to be able to index a cursor obtained from a select statement you should use the readwrite clause
What you do is this: select fieldslist from yourtable into cursor yourcursor readwrite nofilter where conditions (you don't even need a where clause and you would still be able to index the cursor) select yourcursor index on field1 tag tag1 index on field2 tag tag2 etc Your resulting cursor does not need to have any records either in order to be able to index it. You could as well have done this: select fieldslist from yourtable into cursor yourcursor readwrite nofilter where 1 = 0 this would give an empty yourcursor and you would still be able to index it with as many tags as you like.
