Index problems

[John Esak]

By corrupted data, I meant could ther be a bad value like an 8bit character
in the field. No, I don't really have a way to check this... They look like
little picture frame corners... :-)  if that helps, which it doesn't I
know... because you would have to browse the file and atually look at the
data. Too hard, with 20,000 records. Let's see what removing the index
completely does after the rebuild.
