Mark,

As I recall, these tables... err.. views won't be available in TRANSACTIONS because you've create a NON-Structural index file (causing an error). Can you check this ?

Walter,

>use my_local_or_remote_view
>index on KeyID tag KeyID of addbs(getenv('temp')) + 'AnyName'
>index on Descript tag Descript of addbs(getenv('temp')) + 'AnyName'

>Create as many index tags as you want and get NO READ-ONLY ERRORS! As a bonus, when you close the view, the temporary CDX file is removed also. As for coming up with a name for the CDX name, you can use sys(3) or some other variation of creating a temp. You no longer have to do the USE DBF() AGAIN IN 0 trick.
