RE: stupid question about indexes and partitions

Hi Joe,
 Here is a blurb from the 8.1.6 Concepts Guide (Chapter 11, under 'Prefixed and Nonprefixed Global Partitioned Indexes'):  

    'Nonpartitioned indexes are treated as global prefixed nonpartitioned indexes'

 I ran into the same stupid question not too long ago.

HTH, Regards
