                       INDEX Directory Contents

The INDEX directory contains a tabular index file accompanied by a
detached PDS label, intended for database use.  The following files
are found in this directory:

INDXINFO.TXT - The file you are now reading.
INDEX.LBL    - Detached PDS label for INDEX.TAB.
INDEX.TAB    - Table with one row of information for each data product 
               in the archive.  

                   Notes on Using the Index Tables

The index table in this directory, INDEX.TAB, contains one row (or
record) for each data file in the archive.  

An index table is formatted so that it can be read directly into
many data management systems.  All fields are separated by commas, and
character fields are enclosed in double quotation marks (").
Character fields are left justified, and numeric fields are right
justified.  Each record ends with ASCII carriage return <CR> and line
feed <LF> characters.  This allows the table to be treated as a fixed
length record file on computers that support this file type and as a
normal text file on other computers.

The file INDEX.LBL is a PDS label file that describes the content and
structure of the fields in the tables, including field name,
format, and description.
