from the Help, under INDEX ON
"Tag names must begin with a letter or an underscore and can consist of any combination of up to 10 letters, digits, or underscores."
>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.
