- This facility allows you to update all transaction amounts on an
- account by linking with an INDEX file such as RPI to create an
- Indexlink file leaving the original file unaltered. The dates between
- which you wish to update the account are set and every transaction is
- then modified to 'index' the amount up to the index valid at the 'end
- date'.

- Simply set, all entries between these dates will be updated to the
- index at the end date.
