Hmmm...maybe not. I'd have to think about that. Of course, you could always two-step it. Create local tables with structural CDX indexes. Create the relationships there. Have a routine that opens the remote views (or use SQL Passthrough) to get the data, empty the local tables, and then append from the view or SPT cursor.
