I think the critical thing is time, how long it takes to rebuild the muli-keyed files. Most of m customers only want the complicated reports once a month, it would be a asimple matter to rebuild all multi-keyed files as part of the end of month routines and leave them with an option to rebuild as and when they do heavy maintenance during the month. If the customer fecides he wants a new reporting sequence you are up for a rebuild anyway.
According to our government, our schools are crap and noone can spell anymore anyway, so make all keys alpha and noone will be any the wiser.
