Oct 5, 2007Hi,
is there a search function in MS SQL server 2005 to search for a name of a table or a name of field or entry in a field?
what/how should be the fastest way to do it?
thank you

SQL 2000 MS Search: Boolean Search Doesn't Work When Search By Phrase
Aug 9, 2006I'm just wonder if this is a bug in MS Search or am I doing something wrong.
I have a query below
declare @search_clause varchar(255)
set @Search_Clause = ' "hepatitis b" and "hepatocellular carcinoma"'
select * from results
where contains(finding,@search_clause)
I don't get the correct result at all.
If I change my search_clause to "hepatitis" and "hepatocellular carcinoma -- without the "b"
then i get the correct result.
It seems MS Search doesn't like the phrase contain one letter or some sort or is it a know bug?
Anyone know?
Thanks
Help W/ Stored Procedure? - Full-text Search: Search Query Of Normalized Data
Mar 29, 2008Hi - 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

Jul 21, 2015Our clients want to be able to do full text search with a single letter. (Is the name Newton, Nathan, Nick?, Is the ID N1, N2...). Doing a single character full text search on a table work 25 out of 26 times. The letter that doesn't work is 'n'. the WHERE clause CONTAINS(full_text_field, ' "n*" ') returns all rows, even rows that have no 'n' in them anywhere. Adding a second letter after the "n" works as expected.
Here is an example
create table TestFullTextSearch (
Id int not null,
AllText nvarchar(400)
)
create unique index test_tfts on TestFullTextSearch(Id);
create fulltext catalog ftcat_tfts;

SQL Server 2014 :: Semantic Search Not Finding Keywords Identified By Full-Text Search?
Nov 6, 2014I have a scenario of where the standard Full-Text search identifies keywords but Semantic Search does not recognize them as keywords. I'm hoping to understand why Semantic Search might not recognize them. The context this is being used in medical terminology and the specific key words I noticed missing right off the bat were medications.
For instance, if I put the following string into a FT indexed table
'J9355 - Trastuzumab (Herceptin)'
AND
'J9355 - Trastuzumab emtansine'
The Semantic Search recognized 'Herceptin' and 'Emtansine' but not 'Trastuzumab'
Nor in
'J8999 - Everolimus (Afinitor)'
It did not recognize 'Afinitor' as a keyword.
In all cases the Base of Full-Text did find those keywords and were identifiable using the dmvsys.dm_fts_index_keywords_by_document.It does show the index as having completed.
why certain words might not be picked up while others would be? Could it be a language/dictionary issue? I am using English and accent insensitive settings?
Create Site Search Using Sql Server Full Text Search
Jul 24, 2007would 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?

Full-Text Search: Prefix / Suffix Search
Sep 14, 2004Please help me to create an SQL Server 2000 Stored Procedure for using prefix and suffix terms.
Example:
Say I want to find "Terminator" (1984).
I want to be able to use "Term" or "ator" as search results and still return the proper record.
Here is my Stored Procedure creation sql:
CREATE PROCEDURE sps_searchTitles(@searchTerm varchar(255)) AS
SELECT * FROM Video
WHERE FREETEXT (Video.*, '"*@searchTerm*"')
GO
--- The above does not appear to properly check both prefix ("Term---") and suffix ("---ator") terms.
I am trying to accomplish what is similarly done with LIKE '%term%'.
thanks, YM
SQL 2012 :: FullText Search - Can Search Terms Come From Another Table
Mar 25, 2015I have a table that contains words that will be used to search another table where FullText index has been created on searchable columns. I'm basically trying to run something like this:
SELECT t1.col1, t2.col3
FROM tbl1 t1, tbl2 t2
WHERE CONTAINS (t1.col1, t2.col1)
I know this won't work but is there a way to join these two tables so the words (t2.col1) can be passed as search conditions? There is no common key on both tables so normal join won't work. I'm trying to find a way to pass the search words from one table to another.
Full Text Search- Substring Search Not Working
Jul 6, 2007I have Sql server 2005 SP2.
I enabled it for Full Text search. Substring search where i enter *word* doesn't return any row.
I have a table testtable where description has word Extinguisher.
If i run a query with *ting* it doesn't return any row.
select * from testtable where contains(description,'"*xting*"') ;
But it works if i do
select * from testtable where contains(description,'"Exting*"') ;
The Full text search document says it supports substring search.
Is it an issue with sql server 2005?Please help.
SQL Search :: Can't Get Expected Results With Contains And Full Text Search?
Nov 1, 2015I am using Sql Server 2014 Express edition.I have a table with a varchar(max) column. I have created a full text search that use the stoplist "system". column has this struct: xxx.yyy.zzz.... where xxx, yyy, zzz... are numbers, like 123.345.123123.366456...I can have rows like that:
123.345
123.345
123.345.444
123.345.555
123.345.666
123.345.444.777
123.345.444.888
123.345.555.999
I am trying this query:
select * from Mytable where
contains(MyColumn, '123.345.')
I gues the contains would return all the rows with column contains 123.345, but this does not return all the expected rows, only one row.I have tried to replace "." with "-" but the result is the same.I have also tried with '123.345.*. In this case I have got more results, but no all the exptected rows.If I use this query:
select * from MyTable where
MyCOlumn like '123.345.%';

mft megger (proper order in the database is megger mft)
mft1710 (using 1710 should find the product)

General SQL Abilities...
Jan 12, 2003Hello everyone,
as you might have seen, I'm a total newbie to this Site and M$ SQL.
I browsed the forum to see if there are already matching answers to my question, with no success.
My question:
As a MySQL & PHP user I ask myself if there is a possibility to use M$ SQL the way I use MySQL and PHP!?
Is there a way to generate dynamic websites with M$ SQL 2000 and a webserver running PHP sources?
A brief yes or no would really help me, if you have any links or resources on this topic, I'd be glad to hear about it.
Thanks

General Q About Formulae
Aug 3, 2005Before I go into specifics, this is my problem. I've have a tablethat gets updated with large amounts of data on a monthly basis.Sometimes (rarely) identical rows of data are on one months import thatalready exist from the previous month. I can identify these rows from acombination of two fields (sampleID and testname).My question is this. Would it be an appropriate 'fix' if I created anew 'formula' field on the table comprising of a concatentation ofthese two fields and then made that an index field (no duplicates)? Myguess would be that if we then tried to import a record with a sampleIDand testname that already existed, then the import for that recordwould simply fail.Would this work? Is there a better way? My background is more withAccess so apologies if I'm not using the right terminology.Simon Harris

Mar 28, 2006I have a general question about transactions and commands that are replicated in a Transactional replication.
My screen shot says:
A total of 5 transaction(s) with 85 command(s) were delivered.
I know what a transaction is, but what is a command?
I am assuming a transaction is
begintrans
committrans, correct?
General Question
Sep 21, 2006I am currently upgrading my companies database from 6.5 to 2000. Including the replication. I am curious about something. Currently we are using the commands in 6.5 to do the replication instead of stored procedures. (except for one table that requires custome filters). When I reestablished replication on 2000, the default is to create stored procs on the subscribers to hande the replication. (sp_MSins_tablename). My question whether anybody knows why it defaults to using sp's? Is there a reason or is that just the way it is. I want to know if using sp's is better than just sing the commands before I change my setup.
Thanks for any responses.
