I am going to set up an import every 3 hours.
In the package I have set it to delete the existing rows in the table and competely replace them each time.
DOes this affect any indexes I create?

Thanks

it will fragment them, but it won't delete them

Although if you re-import pretty much the same data there will be no significant fragmentation??

Worth doing an Index Rebuild to tidy them up though ...
