Well, I'm glad you pointed it out, because I THOUGhT I had created it, but
apparently I haven't -- I only noticed that it was missing after I listed
all the other indexes. Looks like this query is one of the victims of a db
structure corruption I suffered when transferring the schema over from
development into production.
(Well, that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!)
Thanks for all the help - I've reduced the execution time to 1/10 of its
original time.
