Hi guys,

Just a general query really. I am trying to build a search function to allow
users to search a large site. The site uses dynamic content from a number of
different db tables, and also static content on HTML pages.

I have indexed all the HTML pages, and can run searches on these already,
but this only accounts for half the content of the site. For the rest, I
wanted some ideas for a strategy.

The initial problem I can envisage is that the dynamic content takes
different formats and is stored in different tables in the db (access2000).
So, for example, one table contains details about operas, another details
about performers.

Do I need to index each table separately, then search each of these
collections, and return records from each search, or is there an easier way
of doing this? What about the issues that all of this different content is
displayed on different templates? Just some general pointers about strategy
here would be great. I have used Verity a little before.

Cheers
