Yep... but let think about a database of 20Mb... and his own indexes !! It
takes minutes rebuilt them every time the pc reboots... and because the prg
must work very quickly (it's in shops... so you can understand that if the 
rg
stops... it stops everything, because everything sold must be passed before 
n
the pc to let upgrade the "sold-database" and others databases), I can't
permit that wasting time at the booting...
By the way, another problem is that I use various areas and database and 
index-
es opened at the same time, and because of a local net (ethernet) with 3 to 5
pc it becames noisy when every few days the indexes are to rebuilt again 
eca-
use of the multiple writing and generally 'cause of the net... :(
Finally, so you're saying me that THAT BUG exist... isn't it ? :( sad.
