The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
DISTINCT is a post result set operation. The initial result set is
created, then DISTINCT eliminates duplicate rows from that result set.
I doubt if it factors into the access plan...

Subject: Re: Using an SQL index over DDS file?
Success!
Apparently DISTINCT and GROUP BY indeed act differently under the
covers,
because DISTINCT took ~60-90 seconds while GROUP BY was 100ms. VE
reports
using an index scan with the new index. Perhaps DISTINCT does not take
advantage of indexes? It seems unlikely.
Thanks everyone for the help and suggestions!
