Hi,

I have not used the REINDEX command in a very long time. And I am getting a lot of problems related to the application not being able to read some .cdx files. These CDX files are part of the SFQUERY and SDT and I don't know the structure of the indexes. So, just to be sure that the problem is not with a corrupted index, I thought I would reindex these DBFs.
I am thinking of simply executing the following command:
use SDTMETA
REINDEX
And the same with a couple of other meta DBFs. Is the above safe?

TIA
