ohhh also, you may want to check how you built your compound index on the two fields, did you build them as:
Index on alltrim(field1)+alltrim(field2)
or without the alltrim?
Index on field1+field2
????? This will effect how you do the seek, you should seek in the same manner as the index was built.
