In the system capacities section of the VFP9 help file, it says that field names can be 128 characters in a database. It also talks about the file sizes of a table and an fpt. Is there any documentation on the length of an index name, or on the size of an index file?

It appears that even though a field name can be up to 128 characters (I don't have any that long), the index name will still be pared down to 10 characters. Until now, I haven't had occasion to run into this issue, but now I have. Am I missing something, or is this just one of those undocumented cracks I'm going to have to work around.

Thanks
