Indexing a Partition
Hi all
I have created 4 partitions (P1, P2, P3, P4) using an access file. Now I'm using USE with MODIFY to read the partition data with a common .mas file - say MASTER.mas. I'm able to retrieve the data. However, when I try to put a filter on any of the Indexed fields (in MASTER.mas), I am getting an error - " LINKED FILE DOES NOT HAVE A MATCHING KEY FIELD OR SEGMENT:"
FYI I have not created the indexes while the data was been loaded in the respective partitions. Is there any way I can create indexes in the data in the already created partitions. Also I tried using REBUILD command to create indexes in the partitions. However, since MASTER.FOC was not found, WebFOCUS gave an error regarding the same.

Please advise!

Regards
