Under SSMS where can one find the list of indices?
I can see Stored procedures under Programmability. Is there any place
where I can see the list of indexes.


Apologies, if this is a stupid question.

In Object Explorer you can see the indexes only per table; there is no node
that lists indexes alone.

However, you could run this query to see all indexes in the database:

SELECT object_name(object_id), name
FROM sys.indexes
WHERE index_id 0

Indexes are dependent on a specific table so you need to first expand the
desired table node, where you will see an Indexes node. Note that SSMS will
include indexes that support constraints under the Indexes node too.
