That is true, but I can't use contains... either that or I haven't figured out the syntax for it. With contains, you can only specify a string or a variable for the keywords part.
Either way I think like will be faster, since contains means a full trip to the FTS service, which slows down things a lot. Is there a way to optimize SQL server to make like faster?
