>Soo... If my indexes disappear on a database table within the database container, and my meta tables are up to date, the SDT Validate will correct this?

Yes. If you call the Reindex method, make sure the 3rd parameter you pass is .T. so the SDT meta data is used to create the indexes. The second parameter is logical for packing [.T.] or not [.F.] the tables before reindexing.
