OpenEdge ships compiled word-break tables for double-byte and UTF-8 databases. The word-break tables are pre-applied to the appropriate empty databases. This means that word-indexing is available without any additional work for those databases.

The compiled word-break tables are proword.245 through proword.254. The tables are in your install-dir/prolang/language directory or subdirectory with the corresponding empty database.

If you already have a proword file that uses the same number as one of these new tables, you should change its number to a number less than 240. You can then apply the new word rule to your existing database. This change does not require an index build.
