The syntax for CREATE.INDEX is CREATE.INDEX filename fieldname. Your field name is
"1". What will happen is that a directory called I_filename will be created, the
actual index will be a file called INDEX.nnn in that directory, and the mapping from
your field name is recorded in a (binary) file called INDEX.MAP.
Possibilities for this error are that you don't have permission to create I_filename
directory, you don't have permission to create the INDEX.nnn file within that
directory, or it's objecting (on priciple) to a name that doesn't begin with an
alphabetic character (perhaps because such an index would not be accessible via ODBC
because of ODBC naming rules).
If permissions aren't the issue, try creating a synonym (or use an existing synonym)
for field number 1, one whose name begins with an alphabetic character, such as "A1",
then try indexing on that.
