Rob--

If you have the MIMIX product, they have a "reorganize while 
active--"  sort of.  It creates a 2nd copy of the file that is the 
reorganized version.  This all happens while the file is active and 
in use.

At some 'quiet time,' you release the 'put it back' function (which 
requires an exclusive lock onthe file).  The Logicals are moved to 
the new file, the old file is removed and the new, clean file is 
placed in production.  Journalling and triggers and such are placed 
back on the new, clean file.

It works pretty nicely!

If you don't have MIMIX, well...
