I am running DBCC DBREINDEX and DBCC INDEXDEFRAG against
my database tables and they are not defragging any of my
indexes. Why not?Why are you running both? Also, what command exact are you running? And,
does the tables have clustered indexes? And how do you determine that the
fragmentation isn't reduced? And, remember that there is no idea wasting
time with fragmentation unless an index uses at least somewhere between 500
and 1000 pages.

indexes you are concerned about.

Heaps cannot be defragged.

th ereindexing to make any difference. Thanks for the
info...

Besides a table this small is hardly worth spending a lot of effort on.
