Create Site Search Using Sql Server &"full Text Search&"
would you use sql server "full text search" feature as your site index? from some reason i can't make index server my site search catalog, and i wonder if the full text is the solution. i think that i wll have to you create new table called some thing like "site text" and i will need to write every text twice- one the the table (let's say "articles table") and one to the text. other wise- there is problems finding the right urlof the text, searching different tables with different columns name and so on...
so i thought create site search table, with the columns:
id, text, url
and to write every thing to this table.
but some how ot look the wrong way, that every forum post, every article, album picture or joke will insert twice to the sqr server...
what do you think?

How To Implement Site Search && Full Text Serch On SQL Server
Hi, I want to implement site search in my application, I got the solution of searching the static content, but most of the pages in my application is content based(content is coming from database at runtime), so those content I am not able to search from database. While searching about the same, I got information about Full Text search (FT) in SQL Server 2005, but whether it will work in SQL Server 2005 Express or not? I didnt get exact steps to implement FT on my database so far.... Any help?

Help W/ Stored Procedure? - Full-text Search: Search Query Of Normalized Data
Hi - I'm short of SQL experience and hacking my way through creating a simple search feature for a personal project. I would be very grateful if anyone could help me out with writing a stored procedure. Problem: I have two tables with three columns indexed for full-text search. So far I have been able to successfully execute the following query returning matching row ids: dbo.Search_Articles @searchText varchar(150) AS SELECT ArticleID FROM articles WHERE CONTAINS(Description, @searchText) OR CONTAINS(Title, @searchText) UNION SELECT ArticleID FROM article_pages WHERE CONTAINS(Text, @searchText); RETURN This returns the ArticleID for any articles or article_pages records where there is a text match. I ultimately need the stored procedure to return all columns from the articles table for matches and not just the StoryID. Seems like maybe I should try using some kind of JOIN on the result of the UNION above and the articles table? But I have so far been unable to figure out how to do this as I can't seem to declare a name for the result table of the UNION above. Perhaps there is another more eloquent solution? Thanks! Peter

Save Indexed Search Words (Index Full-text Search)
We have SQL Sever 2005 and created a Full-text Search on a one of our main tables. When some one comes for the first time and searches for "carb" it takes a long time to return results, but when the same search is done within a few more minutes, results return in less than 1 second. Is there a setting in SQL Server 2005 to save all the indexes of searched words? Thanks

SQL Server 2000 Full Text Search (extract Pieces Of Text)
Hello everyone ! I want to perform Full Text Search with SQL Server 2000. My documents (.doc, .xls, .txt, .pdf) are stored in a SQL Server field which is binary (the type of the column is image). I would like to know, how you can extract pieces of text from the documents. Example: I have a ASPX page with codebehind in C# making the search in a table in SQL server that is full text indexed. I make a search looking for the word "peace", than SQL server will take care about the search and return it to me the rows that match with that. But also I'd like to extract the 50 characters before and after where sql server found the word "peace" to show in the result page. Does anyone has any idea how to work around it ? Best regards.

Full Text Search In SQL Server 2000
I have one question about full text search in SQl Server 2000/2005. I have one table which has 7 text columns. I want to retrieve all rows that have the search word in either of those 7 columns. I want to know if there is a way to add weight to those columns so SQL Server can better rank the result set. For example, column 1 has weight 1 and column 2 has weight 0.1. So records that have search word in column 1 will rank higher that those having search word only in column 2. Thanks a lot, Baoxin

Full Text Search - Wildcards (SQL Server 2005)
the sql server documentation states that the use of wildcards is allowed by placing an '*' at the end of the search term. I can get this to work OK in the SQL Server 2005 query window, heres an example select ID, SUBSTRING(Title, 1, 100) AS Title, Implemented, Published from Table1 where contains(title,'"Therap*"') ORDER BY Title this works OK and returns a list ot titles with the word Therapy in the title Im trying to implelemnt this functionalty in a web app with C#. The string is passed to a stored procedure. How on earth do I pass in the quotes ?? Ive tried building the string as normal then adding single quotes on the end, so I get something like retval = txt + "*"; //txt contains the partial word im searching for, then add the wildcard then retval = "'" + retval + "'"; // add the single quotes and pass txt as a string parameter to my stored procedure. It doesnt work. Can anyone tell me what im doing wrong ?? the same query works fine in the SQL query window.

Full Text Search On Clustered SQL Server 2000
I am using SQL Server Enterprise 2000 and have created a full text search on the pubs database as per the instructions below:- http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3441981 However, when I verify the search :- SELECT title, notes FROM titles WHERE CONTAINS (notes, ' "quick easy" ') no rows are returned. In the full text tab under the pubs database, my demo catalog is listed, but the Item count and unique key count are both 1. There are 18 records in my titles table. The full text files location is on my H drive which is set up as a dependency of SQL Server in cluster admin. In SQL EM->Support Services->Full Text Search->properties, the location of my temporary files was set to C:winnt empgthrsvc. As nothing in cluster admin can see this directory, I changed it to H: emp but still no data is returned by the query. There is no default error log file listed and I can't work out how to change this. I have checked the Search service is running under the local system account. I can't find any error messages which may indicate a problem apart from the fact that the T-SQL query doesn't return any data. Anyone any ideas? Any help is much appreciated. Thanks in anticipation.

Full Text Search In SQL Server 2005 Express?
Newbie questions. 1. Can SQL Server 20005 Express do full text searches? 2. If not, is there a way to use SQL Server 20005 Express to search a database column containing text data type? Using Visual Basic 2005 Express, I would like to do a simple search with a search textbox and button that will return the entire contents of a field of database text when one or more words in the search text box are in the field of text in the database. I have been playing in Visual Basic 2005 Express and using SQL queries (SELECT, FROM, WHERE) to output to DataGridView controls by using ID columns as filters in the query, etc. This I can do. But I have not been able to use a word or phrase in the search textbox as a filtered query to output the entire database field of text which contains the search word or phrase in the search textbox. Thanks for any help in getting me started with this.

Starting Full-text Search On SQL Server 2005 Express Advanced Edition
I have upgraded a SBS 2003 MSDE database (instance MSSQL$SHAREPOINT) to SQL Server 2005 Express Advanced Edition. This worked without a problem even when I enabled all the options for the upgrade including Full-text search. I now want to have Full-text search on this instance of SQL 2005 with database name of STS_EVEREST_1. I first tried to use the T-SQL command of "CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG BBVisionCatalog AS DEFAULT;" I now know that the original database was created under SQL 2000 and therefore I needed to use SQL 2000 commands. So I used the following script: USE STS_EVEREST_1 EXEC sp_fulltext_database 'enable' EXEC sp_fulltext_catalog 'BBVisionCatalog', 'create'; It produced the following ERROR messages: (1 row(s) affected) Msg 7609, Level 17, State 2, Procedure sp_fulltext_database, Line 46 Full-Text Search is not installed, or a full-text component cannot be loaded. I checked to see if the Microsoft Search Service was running. It was running. Anyone know how I can fix this? Regards Rolf Pfotenhauer email: rolfpf@yahoo.com.au

Adding A Full Text Search Across Multiple Tables (with Text Fields)
Hi, i'm trying to do a full text search on my site to add a weighting score to my results. I have the following database structure: Documents: - DocumentID (int, PK) - Title (varchar) - Content (text) - CategoryID (int, FK) Categories: - CategoryID (int, PK) - CategoryName (varchar) I need to create a full text index which searches the Title, Content and CategoryName fields. I figured since i needed to search the CategoryName field i would create an indexed view. I tried to execute the following query: CREATE VIEW vw_DocumentsWITH SCHEMABINDING ASSELECT dbo.Documents.DocumentID, dbo.Documents.Title, dbo.Documents.[Content], dbo.Documents.CategoryID, dbo.Categories.CategoryNameFROM dbo.Categories INNER JOIN dbo.Documents ON dbo.Categories.CategoryID = dbo.Documents.CategoryID GOCREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX vw_DocumentsIndexON vw_Documents(DocumentID) But this gave me the error: Cannot create index on view 'dbname.dbo.vw_Documents'. It contains text, ntext, image or xml columns. I tried converting the Content to a varchar(max) within my view but it still didn't like. Appreciate if someone can tell me how this can be done as surely what i'm trying to do is not ground breaking.

SQL Full Text Search
Greetings ! Has anyone seen a problem in SQL 7 where you create a full text catalog, define an index on a table, and run 'populate', and end up with an empty catalog ? It runs for a while during the population, and there are no messages in the logs, but the 'item count' property of the catalog is 0. Also you can run a query that uses the index (i.e. uses 'CONTAINS') and you receive no error, and no results. I've set this up on other servers, so I know it works, but can find no mention of this problem anywhere. TIA Eric
