         =============================================================

         This little utility lets you reindex all datafiles in CMS.
         This might be helpful if ever you have a problem with an
         apparent information corruption in CMS. For example if you
         entered information in CMS, but later can't find it, you
         might want to try reindexing your files.

         To reindex CMS:

         A. Press <R> at the "Utilities" menu and then press <Enter>.

            The "Reindex Confirmation" window will appear:


         =====================================================
         | Reindexing all files may take a substantial amount|
         |of time depending on the speed of your computer.   |
         |                 Continue?  [y/N]                  |
         =====================================================

            Note: Reindexing will not affect the information in your
                  datafiles.  It does not touch them at all.

            If you press <N> no reindexing will occur and you will be
            returned to the "Utilities" menu.

         B. Press <Y> to begin reindexing.

            This will erase all the existing indexes and then recreate
            all indexes.

         C. All datafiles will be initialized, and you will be
            returned to the "Utilities" menu.
