Hello all,

I know that Rushmore tech comes into play when you JOIN tables using fields that have index tags in their respective tables.

However, does the tag have to match the name of the actual field being indexed? Reason I ask, in an app I support, performance was slow when joining two tables together on one key field.

Let's say the field is:
FGITEM
The index tag is just ITEM

The Join statement had:

SELECT tableA.*, tableB.descrip FROM tableA INNER JOIN tableB on tableA.FGITEM = tableB.ITEM

Once I added a new index TAG to tableA
FGITEM   tag FGITEM

The query ran much faster.

Does this make sense or am I misunderstanding it?

Thank you,
