Straight form the Access97 Help file...


Sub DropX1()

	Dim dbs As Database

	' Modify this line to include the path to Northwind
	' on your computer.
	Set dbs = OpenDatabase("Northwind.mdb")

	' Delete NewIndex from the Employees table.
	dbs.Execute "DROP INDEX NewIndex ON Employees;"

	dbs.Close

End Sub

Subject: [AccessD] How to Delete or modify an index in VBA


Anyone know how to delete an index in VBA after it's already been added to a
collection.
Another option would be to modify it (add a field) or to set it's Unique
property to false. Any of these would be fine.

I know how to Create an index, just can't delete it. I am using DAO but
could also use ADO if that's the better solution.
