Are you using the Upsizing Wizard? If so, have you gotten the latest and
greatest from Github/VFPX? It’s been updated a few times over the years and one
of the changes IIRC was to better handle newer versions of SQL. Well, newer
than what was around at the time. Highly recommended. Using SQL
going to try is manually creating the insert sql commands
and run these in EM, just a pita if I am missing something obvious.
Interesting one.

I did set it as BINARY index. I changed all my logical field indexes
to binary a long time ago. My reasoning for what I said is that I would
have to go back to anywhere where I didn't have the READWRITE or
NOFILTER clause and expected to show the RECCOUNT() like the example I
posted, then
The INDEX on DELETED is absolutely ok, if you do it as a BINARY index. The
BINARY index is basically the rushmore map. Each record is represented as one
bit, thus the resulting indexmap is way smaller and faster than the traditional
indexing map.
