Hi Tore

Does that mean that I should do a COPY TO xx WITH CDX for each table in the database???

But after I did a series of COPY TO newfile WITH CDX, first to a temp file, and then from the temp file to overwrite the original file, everything is fine..! I am convinced I did the exactly same thing yesterday!!
