I have a series of stored procedures defined in a SQL7 database and want search through all their code to find a particular text value (say the contents of a raiserror message for exampl). How can I do this without having to go into each one seperately and scroll through the code? Is it possible to do it from within SQL itself?
Thanks!

I'm trying to execute a full-text query from a vb.net web application.The problem I have is that in SQL Server, the syntax for a full-textsearch isSELECT *FROM tableWHERE CONTAINS( *, ' "searchstring" ')For whatever reason, VB won't run that search string unless I eliminatethe double sets of quotes:SELECT *FROM tableWHERE CONTAINS( *, "searchstring")This will not work for a search phrase - only single words, and it alsowill not work for a wild card:SELECT *FROM tableWHERE CONTAINS ( *, "search*")The above does not work - I must assume that the double quotes areneeded for both wild card searches and exact phrase searches -The problem of course is that in vb code the SQL string is alreadyenclosed in search quotes - the single quotes are then used to indicatedouble quotes within the search.I have tried using two single quotes on either side of the string, butit doesn't seem to work. ie:"SELECT * FROM table WHERE CONTAINS ( ' '" & textbox1.text & "' ')"Does anybody have any ideas?Trevor Fairchild*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi - 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
View 3 Replies View RelatedOur 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] ....
I 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?
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?

Please 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
I 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.
I 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.%';
for example:
SELECT * from [table1] WHERE CONTAINS([msgcomment], '"fast" NEAR "performance"')
would always slower than
SELECT * from [table1] WHERE [msgcomment] = '%fast%performance%'
Why? and how can it be solved? can you help me?

I'm experiencing an anomaly with my Full text index.
Setup : SQL Server 2005
Indexed Table:
Assets
ID - int (PK, auto increment)
Ref - varchar(50)
[code]....
I have re-built the full-text index, no change.
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.
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.
Yannick
Are there any big differences between the two search techniques? It seems like they are both very similar.
SELECT * FROM TABLE1 WHERE TEXTFIELD1 LIKE '%DATABASES%'
SELECT * FROM TABLE1 WHERE CONTAINS (TEXTFIELD1 ,' "DATABASES" ')
I have a SQL SERVER database which has Articles Table. This table
contains "Description" field which is of type "text". I am trying to
insert 800- 1000 words of data into this field. This data also contains
code snippets. I dont know for some reason it only inserts one or two
lines and thats it. No error is being thrown. I am using multiline
textbox to enter the data into the database. any ideas
It displays something like this:

I have been using the following code on a search page for some time, is has worked very well. We recently changed our database to support multiple addresses for each client. So I added the INNER JOIN on the tblClientAddresses. But now when I try to search on a ID I get an ambiguous cloumn name error on the ID. Can anyone see how I could correct this?

Hello. I have gotten my search page to work when a user enters in the entire loan number. I want to give them the option to enter in a partial loan number. I have the following code for Access database.
If Page.IsPostBack Then
MySearch = "loanno Like '*" & txtSearch.Text & "*'"
Else
txtSearch.Text = ""
End If
I need to convert this for a SQL database search. I tried to substitute the * with % and I am still getting an error. Does anyone know how to fix this problem.
Also, It would be nice to make MySearch reference a stored procedure. This would make the page much more flexible and powerful. I am open to any recommendations. Thank you.
I have code on a website that does a search to an Access database based on what the person enters as the search criteria. My SQL code uses a like % statement for all the fields in the search criteria. The problem is that the first and third search fields do no return the search criteria that is asked for.....The 2nd search field (Description) returns whatever is asked for.....

I'm writing a search for our site and I'm running into a few problems.When I run the query like this, it runs just fine:Declare @Keywords varchar(2000)Select @Keywords = 'modern trial advocacy canada'Select product_id, name, count(name) hitsFROM estore_productsINNER JOIN sequenceON estore_products.name like '%' +Substring(' ' + @keywords + ' ',seq,CharIndex(' ' , ' ' + @keywords + ' ' , seq) - seq)+ '%'WHEREseq <= len(' ' + @keywords + ' ') andSubstring(' ' + @keywords + ' ', seq - 1, 1) = ' ' andCharIndex(' ' , ' ' + @keywords + ' ' , seq) - seq 0Group by estore_products.product_id, nameORDER BY Hits DESCBut when I add another column (for example a column called description)from the select statement I get this error:The text, ntext, and image data types cannot be compared or sorted,except when using IS NULL or LIKE operator.Long story short, what do I need to do to select more columns for thefinal output?Thanks,Ryan
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to create a form that allows someone to find an
address from a postal code search in the database. My query works exactly as I’d
like in query builder using the following select:
Select [FIELD_LIST] from addresses WHETE POSTCODE LIKE ‘%’+@POSTCODE+’%’
I then pass the user entered post code to the select statement
which is executed. However, I’m getting some odd behaviour. Assuming there is
an address in the database with the post code
“LS11 0ES”...
If I search for LS11, nothing is returned;
If I search for LS11%, nothing is returned;
If I search for %LS11%, nothing is returned;
If I search for %LS11%%, the data is returned.
If I search for %LS%1%%, the data is returned (as is LS21
0ES etc. etc.).
However, I want the user to be able to enter shorter search
strings and it to pull all the data back out, so they can enter a substring
such as LS and it will pull out all the data without the users needing to enter
the full pattern of % symbols.
If I go into query builder (in visual web developer) and
enter just “LS” it works as I’d want, but not when pulled from a web page.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Can we do text search in sql server 7.0 ?
if yes then what is the tool required for it?
before I wade in and try to create a text search facility on my SQL server DB, can somebody point me in the right direction for a search ranking SQL query?
I need the user to input two or three keywords into a search field and for the (small) DB to return a handful of rows in order of popularity of the keywords.
I gather from my other post that I will need to be mindful of SQL injections but that's another issue.
I just need some pointers at this stage.
Thanks folks

does anyone have code that shows how to separate individual words from a sentence.
e.g. i have a list of questions and answers in my database and have the following query for it:
SELECT question, Answer
FROM QuestionsAnswer
WHERE FREETEXT(Question, 'i want to travel around the world and learn about cooking')
so i want to extend the above query so that takes each key word (travel, cooking, learn) to find out how frequently that particular word appears in the question (for ranking purposes).
I know freetexttable does rank results, but they don't seem accurate enough for what i need to do.

I have to create a search textbox where if i key in the word "dog",it will search against a field called "Name" in a table.Then it will return all records where the text/data in the "Name" field contains the word "dog".For example,it will return the records where the text/data in the "Name" field has words such as "hotdog","doggie","dog barking","big dog" etc etc.
Can i use simple SQL for this or do i need to configure the full text search service on SQL server 2000 and use the FREETEXT predicate?Thank you in advance for any replies.
