You use either the METALIB procedure or the SAS^® Management Console Update Metadata selection to update a Sybase table with indexes in the SAS Metadata Repository. However, when you use this method, the table is updated but the indexes are deleted from the metadata.

In addition, when you use PROC METALIB to register a Sybase table with indexes, the indexes are ignored.

You can circumvent these problems by doing one of the following:

1. Delete the existing Sybase table in the SAS Metadata Repository and register the table again through the SAS^® Management Console Register Tables selection.
2. Open the properties of the registered table, click the Indexes tab, and enter the Sybase indexes manually.
