Hi,
I want to specify some index fields.Some of my joins are taking a very long time to get the report output.
Is it sufficient if I specify the parameter INDEX=I or FIELDTYPE =I in the master file?

There is something called "KEYS =0 " in the corresponding access file? What does this indicate? Is this the no of indices?

One last question do we have to refresh the synonym or is it suficient that we add the extra code in the master and/or access file?

Thanks in advance
Kalyan.

What type of files are you joining?
and can you talk to the dba for those files?
Short answer, you can't just edit a MFD to create indices.

I agree with susannah. The DBAs will need to create the indecies on the database and you will then have to wipe the metadata for those tables and recreate them (from http://yourserver:8121).

If it's a DB2 table, do you only have to adjust the KEYS= count in the access file, or do you have to do something in the master file as well?
