One question, though. Do I have to construct indexes in both directions? I haven't used the UNIQUE INDEX command. I still have much to learn -- I'm only partway through the DuBois book that I am using to learn MySQL. The chapter on optimizing databases and indexing is next. Well, no need to respond to that. I will study further before asking any more questions.
