Is adding the index using frontbase manager something that can be done after a table is populated? Or will I need to export and re- import my data? Sorry, I'm far from a database expert.
...
Yes, you can add them after the fact. The only time you can't do that is if it is an unique index and your data is not unique. But you have bigger problems then...

Jeff - if you have really large quantities of data, don't forget that it can be a fairly intensive activity for a table's attribute to be indexed so if it is a large database, best try to do it during a low- ebb in system activity.


cheers.
