>Hi All,
>Prior to 7.0, if you built an index tag on a table with the UNIQUE clause, _TALLY returned the number of records now indexed by the tag. Now, in 7.0, _TALLY returns the number of non-unique records, just as if the UNIQUE clause was omitted. Is there a work-around (other than a COUNT TO), or setting I'm missing? TIA!

I suggest not to use this kind of index. It is kept only for backwards-compatibility, and as far as I know, there is no practical use for it. But perhaps you should explain what you need it for.
