Windows Mobile 5 with filePro?--Index Problem Now

I had been using the evaluation version of PocketDOS and thought maybe 
the "real" version would solve the problem, so I paid $37.82 to get the 
unlock code.  Unfortunately this doesn't seem to help.  The indexes are 
in the filePro (4.1) directory, but not showing up in Index Maintenance. 
  If I rebuild them, they "evaporate" from Index Maintenance (exit, come 
back in, not there).   Is anyone on the forum successfully running 
filePro in PocketDOS and  Windows Mobile 5?  NOTE:  I did add FILES=60 
and DEVICE=ANSI.SYS to the config.sys, but this didn't help either. 
Also, I hate to bother FP Support on this matter, because 1) it's 
version 4.1 for DOS, and 2) it's for PocketDOS.
