Hello everyone. I have just had a wonderful
experiance. I created a wonderful pack and reindex proggie, with bells and whistles like mutiple progress meters on subsystems. And a wonderful message system when completed... :) However, due to past experience with expanding cdx's I issued a DELE TAG ALL for every table in the project, using a nice developer updatable table that tells me the tables and the INDEX ON expressions for each. Well, it worked liked a dream and as I reran it for all the subsystem heads they OOhhed and aahhed and said that I was the sunshine... I destroyed ALL the RI in ALL the subsytems... Oh yes, as might guess I am the popular one today. Fortunately, I am very retentive about backups. So data is restored but it was still a big pain.
The question here is, How to avoid CDX expansion(while retaining RI).

"If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animated contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsel or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen."
~Samuel Adams
