Title: Re-index from DOS prompt
Post by: Hans Manhave on September 16, 2010, 03:50:18 PM
What was the command to re-index a file from a C:\ prompt?  I recall something in the nature of "reindex 0 filename" but that does not appear to work for my 9.3 install.  I'm running off the TAM subdirectory.  Not urgent, just cannot recall.  Yes, I do have people in the system, but they are not using this particular file.

dbmaint /o:r /t:filename

if you want to pack & reindex it's

dbmaint /o:p /t:filename

I think that's it.

Thank you.  That worked.  I'm a very happy camper.

So many interesting projects, so many interesting tools, so very little time.

Hans - if I didn't have it written down I could not have helped. So along with your  "so many..." you can add "so many brain cells gone"  :D  for me anyway.
