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

Full-Text Search Without Certain Words
Hello, I'm trying to create an SQL query that will search my full-text catalog for entries that do not contain certain words. From http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/tsqlref/ts_ca-co_3syt.asp, if I'm reading this correctly, I can use the "AND NOT" boolean but not "NOT" Basically I want something like this.... CONTAINSTABLE(T_Table, *, 'NOT FORMSOF(INFLECTIONAL, "hello world")') but since "NOT" isn't an option, this doesnt work. Anyone know a good way to do this functionality? Thanks in advance

Full-text Search Ignored Words
when I query the database with full-text search and I enter such keywords as eg "a", "an" I get this error message: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E14) [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Execution of a full-text operation failed. A clause of the query contained only ignored words. How can I filter out ignored words from the search? Is there a file where they are defined?

Creating Indexed Views For Full Text Search
Hi, I have problem that Im sure others must have had before so I am looking for advice on the best way to solve it. I have a table of text information tbl_base which is related to another table containing tags, which can contain several rows for each row in base. I want to create an indexed view of the data for full text search. I would like to select all the tags related to a particular row in the tbl_base together into a string and join it to the end of the tbl_base table so they can be indexed along with the tbl_base data for full text indexing. Ive tried several methods but I am never able to make an index on my view because it say I cant use COALESCE, or Cursors. Sample data here : tbl_base id | Text ------------------------ 1 | BLah blah 2 | Dum de dum 3 | HAr HAr tbl_base_tags tagID | base_id | TagText -------------------------- 1 | 1 | first 2 | 1 | second 3 | 1 | third 4 | 2 | fourth The view I want to end up with will look like this : vw_tables base_id | Text | Tags ------------------------------------- 1 | Blah blah | first second third 2 | dum de dum | fourth How can I achieve this? Do I have to index all the tables seperately?

Highlight Found Words Using Full Text Search
We are using fulltextsearch, with the FREETEXT command. This works very well for us, but we would like to highlight all forms of matched words in the text. This is used in a website, and now the highlighting of the found words is limited to the exact matches of the searched words. So it often happens that in a text there is no exact match of the searched words, but another form of that word. Does anyone know if and how this problem can be fixed ?

MS SQL Full-text Index Search
First of all I’m new to MS SQL, I did work with mySQL Table name db (real db has 12 columns) Id c1 c2 c3 1 tom john olga 2 tom john olga bleee I enabled full text index on all columns Problem when I do search like this: SELECT * FROM db WHERE CONTAINS(*,'�tom� AND “john�') It will return only one row (id 2) – I understand that the full text search does look only at one column at a time because it did not return row #1 Anyway I thought that I can add extra column c4 and when user enters new data it will save data from columns c1, c2, c3 to c4 (varchar(750)) and then I will do search only on c4 – this way it will work the way I want. 1) Is there any better way to do this? 2) How do I sort results by “rank� with SQL

It seems to work reasonably fast for upto a 100,000 records but the performance fall considerably once you increase the database size to half a million records. Can any one suggest what measures should be taken to optimize the full text search index so that the retrieval speed can be acceptable, typically say less tha 15 to 20 seconds. Thanks

Full-text Index Search Not Returning Expected Results
Hello, My full-text search isn't working at all! I have a temporary table with full-text indexing enabled where files are scanned for social security numbers. If it has one, the user will see a message that it believes it's found a SSN and won't upload it. There is only ever one row in this table, as we overwrite the contents upon each upload. I'm testing this search, and it doesn't work. The table has the following columns: attachemtId (int) - primary key fileContent (image) - contents of the file fileExtension (varchar) - extension of the file (this is always either ".pdf" or ".doc") I created a .doc file that simply says "ssn", and then run the following query: SELECT * FROM TempAttachment WHERE CONTAINS(fileContent,'ssn') and nothing is returned! I tried the same thing with a .pdf file, and same results. I'm not sure if this is related, but earlier I had this issue where I had to reset permissions for the directory. I've tried removing the full-text index and adding it again, but that didn't do anything. I also checked error logs on the server, and there were no messages. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you!

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

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.

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

I have set up a Full Text Catalog in sql2k on one of my tables which holds a list of adverts and keywords associated with each advert. On the search page of my website the user will enter some keywords to search upon. I am trying to determine the advert most relevant to those keywords to display. I have this query so far select [key], [rank]as rank, b.Keywords from tbl_BANNER_ADVERTS as b join CONTAINSTABLE (tbl_BANNER_ADVERTS, keywords, 'ISABOUT (asp WEIGHT(0.9),sql WEIGHT(0.9),java WEIGHT(0.9))') as k ONb.BannerPK = k.[KEY] group by [Key], rank, Keywords order by rank desc but am getting these results back keyrankKeywords 1476oracle java asp 1543java oracle asp 1143asp sql html 1330asp html java 1211sql oracle html What I dont understand is why 14 is above 15 when both contain asp and java (which im looking for) and oracle which im not. Also why isnt 11 and 13 the same ranking as they both match 2 words as well. Ive given them all equal weight so should they not treat each word the same. How can I get it so that the banners that match the most keywords entered by the user come above the others. I just want the banners which match the most words to be scored highest. If one advert has 2 words and another has 2 different words I want both with equal ranking so I can then randomly choose between them. I don't care about the order they are entered or the proximity of one word to another or the length of the word. All words should be treated equally and the advert with the most matches should be top. Any help would be much appreciated and I thank you in advance.
