Dave,
Just wondering if you can answer me this on Indexing;
If you have several Indexes setup only on individual fields, do these effect
queries which use several fields which have different indexes, or do we need
to build an index with all of the effected fields?
e.g.
Index on CompanyName
Index on PersonName
select PersonName, CompanyName
where PersonName like '%smith%' and CompanyName like '%IBM%'
Would this use the 2 indexes, or would I need an index on PersonName and
CompanyName?
