David, We ran into the same thing and went with Verity Ultraseek. It's worked great for us.

I would really like a simple 'Google Like' interface search for my clients that would search for the given value in all fields of all those records. I have been looking a the Google Search Appliance, which has direct database indexing built in, but it is VERY expensive (min $30K). I have also seen the 'Google Mini' whichosts less ($2K) but does not do the direct database indexing. Instead I have seen the reccomendation that I build a dynamic page with URL links to each record. Would this work with sow many records involved? Has anyone seen or does anyone have any ideas on making the entire contects of a large database easily searchable? TIA, -- David Mineer Jr --------------------- The critical ingredient is getting off your butt and doing something. It's as simple as that. A lot of people have ideas, but there are few who decide to do something about them now. Not tomorrow. Not next week. But today.
