That is correct. You must open the "New View" before opening the 
IdxPro window. The problem is known.

One of the rare occasions I use a windoze machine. There updating goes 
very much faster. The time needed also depends on the amount of styles

I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that one day a new, better, 
indexing utility appears for OvPro. I believe at least GBP35,= for 
such an update is more than worthwhile....
