Everytime I see someone else's code I'm left scratching my head.
Take this line of code:
Index Tag shiprate On province+Allt(city) Uniq
Besides the data modelling no-no of province and city in a table - permitting various incorrect spellings of province and city and impossible combinations of non-existant cities/provinces, and the questionable practice of having multiple shiprates per city+prov in the table only to ignore any but the first one, the code is written as if by Yoda.
The help clearly shows
INDEX ON eExpression TO IDXFileName | TAG TagName [BINARY]
[COLLATE cCollateSequence] [OF CDXFileName] [FOR lExpression]
[COMPACT] [ASCENDING | DESCENDING] [UNIQUE | CANDIDATE] [ADDITIVE]
So while that line of yodacode works, it throws me for a loop. So I hereby request that we coin the term yodacode to apply to any yoda-like programmers.
