No, it's not a problem but result of "Index Bloat". See http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~CDXBloat~VFP for details.

Does REINDEX do some kind of optimization that would result in this as a matter of course or might the change indicate a problem of some kind? I can't seem to find any technical reference in MSDN that explains this.
