I guess at this point the white flag goes up...I am not really sure what to do...

Here is what I have:

tables with info on people
tables of book publications/journals/papers/etc..
tables with calendar info
a page.cfm?idnumber=another page number to be imbedded in the page.cfm
many pdf's
many doc's
many html,cfm,htm. 

this is just to start but pretty standard stuff.  Do I want to create new collections 
for each table/query and for the document content.  Then in my search search them 
all??  

Thanks
lost in space.....

Good advice. Verity should work for you, if I am understanding what it is
you would like to do. Your machine will take a beating while it is
generating the collections but if you run your routines at night or in the
early morning when you have no traffic it should not be an issue. I just
finished a Spectra site where the collections are destroyed and recreated
every morning to keep Verity Indices fresh. The process hits the server hard
and takes between 5 and 7 minutes but works fine.

huh?

actually WHY isnt verity good for you?

you said your pages are dynamic BUT you do not want to re-index often.  That
sounds like it is counter productive.  dynamic pages should be indexed
often.  However, you can index whenever you want...  every day, week, year,
hour, min...  (though i wouldnt recommend doing it in terms of minutes).....
but whenever you want...


i think you need to explain your requirements a bit more in-depth to let ppl
help you out, but verity is very flexible...  its all about the code...
