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

*.LBL files  - Detached PDS label files for the TAB files listed above        
               (for example, INDEX.LBL for INDEX.TAB).

Notes on Using the Index Tables                                               
                                                                              
The index table in this directory contains at least one row (record) for 
each Lunar Prospector MAG/ER data product on the present disk.  All 
tables are formatted so that they can be read directly into many data 
management systems or spreadsheet programs.  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 and line feed 
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.                       
                                                                              
Each index file has a PDS label file that describes the content               
and structure of the fields in the table, including field name,               
format, and description.  The values for start byte and number of             
bytes listed in the label file do not include commas between fields or        
quotation marks surrounding character fields.                                 
                                                                              
The manifest file (MANIFEST.TAB) is like an index file, but it lists
every file on the disk instead of just the MAG/ER data products.
