    There are times when an index is not needed for a foreign key. If the table is small (low number of rows) or the index column has little selectivity, then why add the overhead of an index? I wrote a similar script about a month ago, but found that the were many times the index just wasn't needed.

    It can be run as just a select first to pull up a list for evaluation. A starting point like that can be useful when you're trying to tune an inherited database.


    Puto me cogitare, ergo puto me esse.
    I think that I think, therefore I think that I am.
