Hi all,

Do they need to be recompiled again.
Please suggest me.

Hello,
It will help if you post what you "had" and how it was changed - both the data column(s) and the index definition(s). |

If you are only adding a column to the index, I would suggest rebinding inorder to take advantage of the 'new' index.
The DBRM will not have changed - unless you change the SQL, so no need to reprecompile and recompile. |
