Suppose I have 2 files : M1 and M2. M1 file has a dictionary Dict.M1. M2 does not have a dictionary. The M1 file also has indexing on several fields defined in the Dict.M1. Now if I Set-Alias with

Source=Dict.M1 and Alis Name=Dict.M2 will the Indexing system try to index the data in file M2.

No. The system determines that indexing is required and builds the file handle accordingly only if the media map for the data portion contains SI.MFS. In the case you outlined it would not so no index transactions would be generated.
