SET.INDEX filename TO RELATIVE.PATH This command will set the index pathname to "./I_filename" eliminating the need to reset the index pathname when the files are copied, as long as the data file and index file are copied as a unit. Similarly: CREATE.INDEX filename indexname AT RELATIVE.PATH Wanted to share this *very* nice enhancement. Jeff Fitzgerald Fitzgerald & Long, Inc. --------------- Not too long after my post, Steve O'Neal made this post about a problem. Haven't tested lately to see if it's still a problem or not.... ------------------- There are, of course, caveats with everything. You cannot add a second index after you make the first one, AT RELATIVE.PATH, in a typical fashion. This would be necessary if you wanted indices with different characteristics, for example, with and without NO.NULLS. This behavior occurs on AIX 5.3 and Windows XP at UniVerse 10.2 Case 422234*USA has been created. C:\Accounts\bugs\IndexRelative2>C:\ibm\uv\bin\uv This directory is not set up for uniVerse.
