Hello everyone,

I hope there is someone that can help me.
I have installed Postgres 4.2 on AIX. It works well since two or
three month. But now, I get some problems on defining Indices.

When I do this with the command "define index ... using btree ..."
on a normal attribut (int4) by using the default operators "int4_ops"  
I am getting no effect. POSTGRES gives me no errors, but when I 
start a "retrieve"-command the result is not ordered.

When executing the example "chapter13" in ".../src/examples" all works
well, but the last output is not o.k. The operator <<& works well and
don't print the line with "number=-10000". But the output is not ordered.

Are there any hints in the manual I didn't see ?
Did I make a basic mistake ?
Doesn't Version 4.2 support indices anymore ?

Please help me

there's this footnote somewhere on that page or the previous page of
the user manual that discusses the cost-based optimizer and why the
actual result may not really look like the example..
