Hi barbara,

>Even if REINDEX no longer causes CDX bloat, I still don't plan to use it. It won't fix a damaged header, and I really don't want to have to write more than one routine to re-create the index tags.

For me, REINDEX has the advantage over INDEX ON that I don't have to re-set the relations in the database container. In an event of CDX header corruption, (which IMO opinion is less frequent than in FOX 2.x times) your can take a copy of an empty CDX file, place it over the corrupt one and then reindex.
