Do you think it is important to have a thorough data dictionary for a system?

What?   Please explain this question better.....  :-\


Data in command shell and windows explorer can be sorted many ways and one way is by FileName in alpha numerics where numbers come first and then A to Z so files ascending would be:

001.txt
005.jpg
Apple.log
Zebra.doc

Additionally Windows Indexes Files to know where they are so that when you open up Windows Explorer to look for a file its faster at gathering the information about that/those file(s). Without an Index Windows would have to discover what could be millions of files each time it opens a new window showing files in folders or directories.

The question sounds like homework...and makes no sense.
