   Dear reader,   
      
   My software supplier does not allow me to create an index on "their" tables.   
   Their point is that it can have a bad influence on the performance of   
   "their" forms, queries,  things and so on.   
   However, for some reason, I need to make an index on certain columns in one   
   of "their" tables. At least, I want to search on certain columns that are   
   not indexed.   
   One option is to copy the relevant part of the table to a table of my own an   
   create an index. But, that costs a lot of space, data can be old, you have   
   to refresh etc.   
   By the way, running on Oracle 7, next year that will be 8.   
      
   I hope their is some way of making an index invisible to other users or   
   something like that.   
      
   Does anyone have an suggestion ?   
      
   Thanks in advance!   
      
   Kind regards,   
   Freek
