Indexes in qualified files

I would appreciate some advice and/or solutions for two indexing  
problems concerning qualified files (FP 5.0.14R4 and SCO 6.0):

1.  When using xfer to transfer records from a Windows file server to  
the SCO box, the keys in qualified files are transferred but the  
indexes are not.  In all cases the main key file is empty as all of  
the records are in the qualified files.  Is there any way around this  
or must I manually build each of the indexes for qualified files?

2.  I use the following script to rebuild indexes on the SCO  box:

	#!/bin/sh
	##Rebuild all automatic indexes in all filePro files
	indexlist=`ls /u/appl/filepro`
	for index in $indexlist
	do
		/u/appl/fp/dxmaint $index -ra -e >/dev/null
	done

This works fine for all files except the qualified files.  Is there  
some similar script that might work for the qualified files?  I am  
trying to avoid maintaining a separate file containing a list of the  
qualified files.

Thanks,
