I selected "Check Model", and I'm getting some warnings of "Existence of
index" for a couple of my tables. What is PD complaining about?

Thanks,
Jason

Could be that you have no indexes on your table. PD may not realize that a PK doubles as
an index for your DBMS.

That's what I thought. I had added an index and re-ran the "check model",
but the warning was still there. Hence my confusion. So I tried it again
this morning, and it went away after the addition of the index. Operator
error apparently.

Thanks for the prompt reply,
Jason

That is a typical warning to get.
It is typically bad form to have a table with no index at all, so PD
warns you. Its not an error, just a warning. You can disregard, or
change the Check Model settings, so it doesn't even check for indexes.
