>I have a startup routine that already checks to make sure needed tables are where they should be so I was thinking of modifying the startup routine so it checks to see if the index tag for the table in question already exists in the table's CDX.

select mytable
cTagname="mytag"
if empty(tagno(cTagname))
=messagebox("Invalid Tag!")
