What is Update Index?

It's used with Family Tables. You can create an Instance Index File, which is an .idx file that lists all the family table instances for the model. I think it's supposed to speed retrieval or something. If you add or remove instances from the Family Table, then you need to update the instance index file.


Btw, if you are using a data management system, instance index and accelerator files are not needed.
