Stephane, you can index a view just as any other table in VFP. The only restriction is that you cannot index a view in Table Buffereing mode, but there is an easy workaround - switch to Row Buffering using CURSORSETPROP() and then back to table buffering. You can even keep your index, if you index to .IDX file SET INDEX and REINDEX after you REQUERY() your view.
