Rodolfo,

After you closed/reloaded VFP each time, your SET ORDER TO... does NOTHING as regards the SELECT command. SELECT will re-open tables needed internally and use TAGs as it needs to, provided that they are there to be used AND provided that they comply to the rules for Rushmore.

So, to prove my point, you have to do a different sequence of test. Assuming that the current status is as you describe below, htne:
1) DELETE TAG i002
2) Close/restart VFP
3) USE the table (just so that it is found automatically by SELECT)
4) Execute the select, noting the time that it takes to complete.
5) Create TAG i002 as you did before
6) repeat steps 2-4 above.

You will see that the second run is much faster.
