Thanks everyone for all your information. I was able to figure out why and when (what process, not what date/time) these indexes were being created. Now I can figure out which ones I can delete and which ones I can keep. Thanks again.

(PS.  I cc'd everyone I thought should be aware of this but if I've forgotten anyone then my apologies and could you please forward this to anyone you feel should be informed.)

Subject: Re: SQL Indexes

I've been known to use longer than 10 char names when I'm using SQL to research data and create temporary work tables, so that the table name provides a good clue of the specific data in the table.

I never do that for production tables.

Yes, you can do a CREATE INDEX ABCDEFGHI_keyed_by_customer_name and
it's a perfectly legitimate table name, if a bit whimsical :-/
