Possible to on/off field indexing via ScriptMaker?

[Otis]

Hi, is it possible to turn on/off field indexing via ScriptMaker?

This is normally done via the define fields area, and changing the storage options for a particular field. But I just wanted to know if it's posisble via a script?

Thanks.

No.

Well, if the field is set to auto (index if required) FMP will turn indexing on if you perform a find on the field. You could script a simple find to turn it on...

Once on, the indexing cannot be turned off.

Got it. Thanks for the info.
