One thing in the above sequence is definitely a problem. The table loses all index tags. And when I run Reindex routine from SDT, no index tags are created. I think this is due to the fact that when I DROP the Original table from the database, it removes all index tags definitions for this table from SDT and the database. So I guess I need to save the tags before removing and erasing the table.
