You can view them, but not like modifying the table and clicking on an Indexes tab. The results are returned into a cursor.

e.g., using an ODBC connection called "pubs" into the SQL Server pubs database

lnHnd = SQLCONN("pubs","sa","")
** assuming we got it
lnResult = SQLEXEC(lnHnd, "sp_helpindex 'authors'", "authors_indexes")
SQLMORE(lnHnd)
BROWSE LAST && new cursor is selected

My access to my SQL Server is down right now, and I don't remember the field names, but I remember them being pretty easy to figure out.
The SQL Books Online help is very good - check out sp_helpindex there for more details.

You can fire any SQL Server command, sp, etc., with SPT, as long as the user name/password you connect with has the appropriate rights.
So, after you view these indexes, you can fire another SQLEXEC() to drop one, create a new one, etc.
