Hi,

I never used full-text search before and want to start using it because our stardard LIKE text search is very slow.

However I am not able to create a table index and set its "Is Full-text key" property to Yes.

The index is on a unique bigint column with identity.
The database is full-text enabled

What should I do to be able to set my full-text index ?

thanks

Hi,

First of all, have you created the Full Text Catalog to this Index?
Go to <Database> -> Storage -> Full Text Catalog.

As soon as you have this catalog configured, you will be able to use it.
Don't forget to create a job to re-populate this index frequently.
Go to Top of Page
