Ignoring Noise Words In SQL 2005 Full Text Search
Aug 16, 2007
To ignore the noise words in the query microsoft remommends to execute the following statements, by which we can take advantage of the new transformation of noise words in CONTAINS queries:
EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1
GO
RECONFIGURE
GO
EXEC sp_configure 'transform noise words', 1
GO
RECONFIGURE
GO
But this never works. Can any one please suggest how to make this work.(without modifying the full text text file)

Hope you can ignore your personal music tastes with this post!I have a table of Artists with a Full Text Index on a few columns on that table. My full text querying against this table works really well apart from it seems for one band - "Take That"! I'm guessing this is because these words consitute noise words? I parse user's search terms and add an "AND" between each word. So for example my query is essentially:select * from containstable(Artists, *, '"take AND that"') As I say, this works fine for Pink Floyd etc, but not for these guys! So either SQL Server has a preference on boy bands or I am thinking it is because these words are deemed to be noise. Anybody got any tips on how I could tackle this? I suppose it is quite possible that there might be another band with the same problem.I do have exclusive access to the SQL box, so perhaps I could edit the noise words file......Thanks

Hello,
I use the full-text search utility in SQL Server 2005 to find word in PDFs document.
This is my 'Documents' table:
id (PK), data (VarBinary(max)), extension (nvarchar(4))
My full-text catalog on 'data' column works fine because when I search 'Microsoft', my document containing this word is returned as result.
SELECT * FROM Documents WHERE freetext([data], 'Microsoft');
1 , 0x255044...., .pdf
But I need to know how many times 'Microsoft' word appears in this document.
Do you have any idea how can I retrieve this information?
Thanks in advance!

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 ?

Is there a way to make full text search which supports search terms for words with symbols, like C#, C++ etc.?
I see that even this forum, if I try search for C++, it returns everything where letter c exists. So, it's not possible I guess?

Hi Everybody,
Since SQL 2005 express doesn't support full text search... is there any third party that provides FTS for the express version?
Thank YOU

Full text search is the search functionality that enables a fast and easy way of searching text based data in SQL Server. Although the concept of full text search is not new in SQL Server 2005, there are considerable enhancements in performance and manageability of SQL Server 2005. http://aspalliance.com/1512_Understanding_Full_Text_Search_in_SQL_Server_2005.all

Hello:
I am on a development machine with sql 2000 & sql 2005 installed. The full Text Search for sql 2005 is installed and running on this local machine.
However, I need to do a full text search with sql 2000. When I do:
sp_fulltext_database 'enable'
I get:
Full-Text Search is not installed, or a full-text component cannot be loaded.
Can I install full text search for both sql server 2000 & 2005. I read somewhere that this is not possible.
Since fulltext search loads with sql 2005 (I believe), does this mean I can't do an sql server 2000 full text search on a local machine (or server) that has both of sql2000 & sql 2005 installed.
Thanks for any help on this

I have conflicting info about whether SQL 2005 Express contains full-text search and catalogueing functionality. I have read several places online where it is stated that "SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services" contains full-text search, but that seems to conflict with the info presented here:
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/prodinfo/features/compare-features.mspx
...for clarification, see my screenshot:

What's the real deal, and why the conficting info?

I have setup full text search on a table. Everything works fine. Now I want to find documents that contain the next string: 'T-150/04'
The query will give zero results. Is there a way to find documents that contain these kind of strings? (slahses and minus)
I use the following query:
SELECT * FROM CONTAINSTABLE (jurisprudentie, text, '"T-150/04"' )
If I do this query:
SELECT * FROM CONTAINSTABLE (jurisprudentie, text, '"judge"' )
It will work fine. I know it has to do something with the interpunction things (slahs and minus), but I don't know what query may solve my problem.
Also a select * from containstable(jurisprudentie, text, '"T_150_04"' ) doesn't give me the proper result.
The minus sign and the slash are disturbing things. If i search for "150" or for "04" I will find the record, but I would like to speficically search for the exact string "T-150/04". Because these are references to case law issued by the court.
I hope someone can help me out.
Regards,
CBGE

I installed SQL Server 2005 express with advanced services which is supposed to include full-text search capability but I can't get it to work. When I try to create a full-text catalog it gives me an error because it does not think the full-text service is installed or loaded. I can't seem to find a reference to the full-text search feature to enable or install it. any ideas?

Hello, I have a database that has Full Text Search it works great under Management Studio Express. I can use the CONTAINS expression no problem. Now when I try using the same database in Visual Studio 2005 the CONTAINS statement it doesn't return any values and I don't get any error messages. The way I call my database from my web.config file is as follows: <add name="MyDB" connectionString="Data Source=.FULLTEXTSEARCH;Integrated Security=True;AttachDBFilename='D:My DocumentsVisual Studio 2005WebSitesApp_DataMyDataBase.mdf';User Instance=false" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> Why doesn't Full Text Search work when I use it from my web application and it does work under SQL Server Management Studio Express? Please help, Louis

Hi, There have been a number of posts on querying multiple tables using full text in SQL Server. I haven't quite found the answer I'm looking for, and I'm aware that in 2005 some full text functionality changed. I have an Events table which joins to a Venue table and also a many-to-many link (via a table called EventsToArtists) to an Artists table.When a user searches for "Rolling Stones Wembley" (without the apostrophes), I want the query to look in the following columns:Event.EventNameEvent.DescriptionArtists.ArtistNameVenue.VenueNameI have done quite a bit of testing on this, and haven't yet got the desired results. Rolling Stones will be found in the Artists table, and Wembley in the Venue table. At the moment, if I search for Rolling Stones, it behaves as expected. But if search for the venue name as well I get no results. I'm pretty sure this is because EventName wouldn't contain all key words and so the record is excluded from the results. At the moment I am using INNER JOINs between the tables....perhaps I should be executing a full text search on each table's catalogue and then do a UNION to join the resultsets?Hope you can point me in the right direction.Thanks

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.

Hi,
We are facing a problem while passing a string containing the "&" character into Full Text search CONTAINS predicate. The records that do have this character are not being returned by the search.
I'd like to raise two questions:
1) Is there any special way to escape this character?
2) Does FTS index it at all?
We have tried all known (to us) ways of escaping like doubling the character, using char(38), using ESCAPE etc..Nothing seem to work. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex

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.

Using SQL Server 2005 Express (Advanced SP2) I have created a Full-Text Search application in VB for distribution on CD for single PCs. Works fine on my local machine during development.
Although the SQL Server 2005 Express edition can be distributed freely, it does not seem to support Full-Text searches in the distributed version. Is this true? Or am I missing something with my deployment?
If I need another version of Sql Server for distribution of a Full-Text Search app, how do I go about obtaining the proper DB and permission for distribution? The DB size is about 600 MB.

hello.
is there a rational explanation for which after some select statements, the rank returned by the full-text search engine is 0, knowing that just after the repopulation the rank is displayed correctly?
in other words, time and usage messes up the ranking. why?

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

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

Our 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;
[Code] ....
