reindexing should be done when your indexed are fragmented.index fragmentation can be seen with the use of dbcc showcontigreindexing once a week is always a good thing... however this depends on your setup etc..._______________________________________________Causing trouble since 1980blog: http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/mladenpSSMS Add-in that does a few things: www.ssmstoolspack.com |

so the unexpected reply would probably be:nah reindexing is a completly useless thing since the clustered index takes care of it's health by itself. so you can't do anything to improve your performance _______________________________________________Causing trouble since 1980blog: http://weblogs.sqlteam.com/mladenpSSMS Add-in that does a few things: www.ssmstoolspack.com |

I prefer to index defrag instead of reindexing due to locking stuff. |
