Two tricks to speed things up ... Firstly, would the NO.NULLS keyword speed things up? I'm guessing your fields can often be blank, and in this case you will have a single huge record knocking your index for six!
Secondly, would the pause and resume indexing commands work? During the day, while the users are working, you pause index updates. At the end of the day (or whenever you need to run the reports) you resume indexing. Okay, it'll knacker the system while it sorts out the indices, but it'll be one short, concentrated hit. The you run your reports, disable indexing again, and let the users at it ...

I made secondary index CREATE. INDEX file field1 ... field6 BUILD.INDEX file field1 ... field6 After that, rows inserting takes very long time. (4000 rows. Server so busy, that other users can't do anything. If I removed index then inserting process is OK, but I need this index for reporting) Is it normal in UniVerse? How to avoid this problem? I use UniVerse 9.5.2 on AIX 5.2 Thanks, Margus Kandelin -- u2-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.oliver.com/mailman/listinfo/u2-users *********************************************************************************** This transmission is intended for the named recipient only.
