Select * from TableName Where Contains(ColumnToBeSearched, 'testtosearch')
QUESTION: Can the 'testtosearch' be another table field like ''' + <AnotherTBLField> + '''Is there anyway to make the population of 'testtosearch' to be based on another table field (say when you join to it)?If not what else can I do, another function maybe?
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
Are the XML tags searched, as well as, the contents within the tags, when an xml column is included in a full-text index? Or is it only the contents within the tags? Would I need to combine full-text search with XPath/XQuery to get at the actual tags?
This files are generated durin full text search. now i have doubts regarding this, 1) Can we referrence this files directly 2) Where it will be located in our system? 3) is it loaded for each Full Text Index we created for the table. 4) How this file are used in Full Text Search.
How can you use SQL Full Text Search CONTAINS() with an asp.net 2.0 ObjectDataSource using @Parameters? MSDN says something like this, but only works directly using like the Query from SQL Manager: USE TestingDB;GODECLARE @SearchWord NVARCHAR(30)SET @SearchWord = N'performance'SELECT TestTextFROM TestingTableWHERE CONTAINS(TestText, @SearchWord); I tryed to mak something like that work with the DataSet DataAdapter Query Builder for the ObjectDataSource, but you can't use DECLARE or SET. SELECT TestTextFROM TestingTableWHERE CONTAINS(TestText, @SearchWord); But again it says @SearchWord not a valide SQL Construct Is there anyway to make a DataSet.DataApater.ObjectDataSource work with an SQL FTS CONTAINS() with @Parameters?
I'd like to incorporate search functionality (SQL Server 2005 Full-Text Search) into a web application, so I want to be able to return a paged list of results based on the user's search terms. I already have a parameterized stored procedure that returns a list of products when a category ID is supplied. I modified this procedure to use a different input parameter (@SearchTerms), but I'd still like to return the number of records, as in the original stored procedure.
However, I'm getting this error: Invalid object name 'ProductEntries'.
Here's the original stored procedure:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.GetProductsByCategoryID ( @CategoryID INT, @PageIndex INT, @NumRows INT, @CategoryName VARCHAR(50) OUTPUT, @CategoryProductCount INT OUTPUT ) AS
BEGIN SELECT @CategoryProductCount = (SELECT COUNT(ProductID) FROM Products WHERE Products.CategoryID = @CategoryID) SELECT @CategoryName = (SELECT CategoryName FROM Categories WHERE Categories.CategoryID = @CategoryID)
WITH ProductEntries AS ( SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY ProductID) AS Row, ProductID, CategoryID, Description, ProductImage, UnitCost FROM Products WHERE CategoryID = @CategoryID )
SELECT ProductID, CategoryID, Description, ProductImage, UnitCost FROM ProductEntries WHERE Row BETWEEN @startRowIndex AND @startRowIndex + @NumRows - 1
END
And here's the modified one:
ALTER PROCEDURE dbo.GetSearchResults ( @SearchTerms VARCHAR(200), @PageIndex INT, @NumRows INT, @ProductCount INT OUTPUT ) AS
BEGIN SELECT @ProductCount = (SELECT COUNT(ProductID) FROM ProductEntries)
WITH ProductEntries AS ( SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY ProductID) AS Row, ProductID, CategoryID, Description, ProductImage, UnitCost FROM CONTAINSTABLE (Products, *, @SearchTerms, 25) AS c, Products p WHERE c.[KEY] = p.ProductID )
SELECT ProductID, CategoryID, Description, ProductImage, UnitCost FROM ProductEntries WHERE Row BETWEEN @startRowIndex AND @startRowIndex + @NumRows - 1
END
I thought I might be getting this error because SELECT @ProductCount occurs before the ProductEntries table is created, but when I move that SELECT statement further down, I still get the same error.
How can I get the value of @ProductCount in this scenario so that I can display it in the UI of the web app?
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!
How to implement a universal search in my site And it must be give result precised up to 90%.
Scenario is like that whenever customer come to our site he/she can search for example: Car parts
My Table structure is like below:
Column 1 Column 2 Column 3 Column 4 column 5 column 6 (Keyword) Toyota camry 2000 wheel ABC123 Toyota camry 2000 wheel abc123 Toyota camry 2000 wheel cover 123 Toyota camry 2000 wheel cover 123
Now i have created a full text search index on column 6(keyword)
so whenever someone search exactly describe in column 6 it gives result
For ex: if i search (Toyota Camry wheel) with CONTAINS Option
Select * from mytable where Contains (Keyword,'Toyota and Camry and wheel')
It gives me rows which contains Toyota Camry wheel and other rows which having wheel cover also. So i get multiple rows. Because of we have very large table which contains data in millions its not to feasible to have that thing.
another thing is :
if i search (Toyota Camry wheels) with CONTAINS Option Select * from mytable where Contains (Keyword,'Toyota and Camry and wheels')
It won't give any result back to me which is embarrassment for me. Because customer can search anything so if its not giving result its bad impression.
Also i tried to use FREETEXT option but it gives result in combination of all this word which i searched. so its huge amount of data in result.
We have a table that is Full Text Search index enabled on one column.This table has 200 lakhs of rows(20000000) . ContainsTable() function is searching data with in these 200 lakhs of rows(20000000), if any new rows are inserted then the ContainsTable is not going to search in these recent inserted rows.
We observed when we try for a data to search. it is returning the rows till the rows that are inserted date is less than 30th of march 2012. but not searching in the records that are created after April month , if even the data we are searching is available .
TableFulltextItemCount is around 2.2 crores.
Then we done rebuilt the FT catalog Index. then the TableFulltextItemCount became 0.Again we run the containstable query ,but still it is not getting results.
As the no of rows are very more . so i am not able to show the actual rows from which the data is not coming.
the below query gives 2 results that are from actual base table
HTML Code: select * from g_case_action_log where cas_details like '%235355%' and product_id = 38810
To search for the same above word using FTS,I have used the query as below
HTML Code: SELECT Distinct top 50 cal.case_id,cal.cas_details From g_case_action_log cal (READUNCOMMITTED)inner join containstable(es.g_case_action_log, cas_details, ' ("235355" OR "<br>235355" OR "235355<br> ") ') as key_tbl on cal.log_id = key_tbl.[key] Where cal.product_id = 38810 ORDER By cal.case_id DESC
I have attached one sql script file for your ref that contains create logic and index schema properties
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[SomeTable]( [key] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [keywords] [nvarchar](255) NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [PK_SomeTable] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG ft AS DEFAULT;
CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX ON [dbo].[SomeTable] KEY INDEX [PK_SomeTable] ON [ft] WITH CHANGE_TRACKING AUTO ALTER FULLTEXT INDEX ON [dbo].[SomeTable] ADD ([keywords]) ALTER FULLTEXT INDEX ON [dbo].[SomeTable] ENABLE
Hi, I am trying to build search engin with 11 parameters in 4 different tables in the database. For example: In search.aspx I have 11 textboxes namely nameTextbox, phoneTextbox, nationalityTextbox, ageTextbox etc. And in the result.aspx page I have gridview which post data from the database if the search match. I wrote this stored procedure. P.S please ignore the syntax. @name var(30),
@nationality (30),
@phone int,
etc
as
Select a.UserId, b.UserId, c.UserId FROM Table1 a, Table2 b, Table3 c
WHERE
name LIKE '%' @name '%'
OR nationality LIKE '%' @nationality '%'
OR phone LIKE '%' @phone '%'
etc
But I got an error when I am trying to execute this code because the nulls values so I wrote 1 @name var(30), 2 3 @nationality (30), 4 5 @phone int, 6 7 etc 8 9 as 10 11 12 13 Select a.UserId, b.UserId, c.UserId FROM Table1 a, Table2 b, Table3 c 14 15 WHERE 16 17 name LIKE '%' ISNULL(@name, '') '%' 18 19 OR nationality LIKE '%' ISNULL(@nationality,'') '%' 20 21 OR phone LIKE '%' ISNULL(@phone,'') '%' 22 23 etc 24 25
Also the error still exist. What is the best way to search for multiple parameters in multiple tables ?
Hello,We are developing an application against an MS SQL Server 2000 databasewhich requires that we implement full-text searching across columns inmultiple tables. The research that we have conducted seems to indicatethat this is not directly possible within SQL Server 2000. And we canfind no way to implement this as the catalogs that are generated aretable specific.As a work-around, we are planning to create a secondary table usedstrictly for searching which is going to denormalize and combine thesearchable data into one catalog. We just want to confirm that this isthe recommended approach or if there is an alternate solution anyonehas used. Please note that upgrading to SQL Server 2005 is not anoption.Thanks.John FlemingJoin Bytes!
Hi, I have tried this code from http://jtkane.spaces.live.com/Blog/cns!1pWDBCiDX1uvH5ATJmNCVLPQ!316.entry for full-text search on multiple tables & columns. Here's my code: SELECT * from [tStaffDir] AS e, [tStaffDir_PrevEmp] t,CONTAINSTABLE([tStaffDir], *, @Name) as AwhereA.[KEY] = e.[ID] andt.[ID] = e.[ID] I have FT the both the tables above and I am able to get results from the [tStaffDir] table but not the [tStaffDir_PrevEmp] table.The [tStaffDir_PrevEmp] table does have a column (which is [ID]) that is indexed, unique and non-Nullable.Please advise what I should do and look out for. Many Thanks.
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
hi friends, i need the steps for full text search with more than one tables in single database. I know the steps for full text search by single table in single database. Thanks in advance
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.
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;
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?
I have installed the Adobe iFilter 11 64 bit and set the path to the bin folder. I still cannot find any text from the pdf files. I suspect I am missing something trivial because I don't find much when I Bing for this so it must not be a common problem.Here is the code.

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:
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.%';
I have sql server 2000. I copied a database from one server to another. I have one table that has a full-text index. When I transferred over the database, the index still existed, but was not populated. I made sure the path for the file is pointing to a new correct location. I did "start full population". It only populated one entry @ 1MB. On the old server the index is 100MB with more than 3 million records.
I tried rebuilding, re-creating, and it all works, but when I run "start full population", it only populates 1 record. I double checked the table in question and it has over 3 million records and proper primary key.
I am using Full Text Index to index emails stored in BLOB column in a table. Index process parses stored emails, and, if there is one or more files attached to the email these documents get indexed too. In result when I'm querying the full text index for a word or phrase I am getting reference to the email containing the word of phrase if interest if the word was used in the email body OR if it was used in any document attached to the email.
How to distinguish in a Full Text query that the result came from an embedded document rather than from "main" document? Or if that's not possible how to disable indexing of embedded documents?
My goal is either to give a user an option if he or she wants to search emails (email bodies only) OR emails AND documents attached to them, or at least clearly indicate in the returned result the real source where the word or phrase has been found.
