FTI would help searching greatly, however on MySQL the default is to only index words 4 chars or longer. Thus it makes it unreliable when searching for a small word of 3 chars or less. You can change it to index 3 chars, which would probably be sufficient, but since this is a global change on the whole database server and would require a restart, not everyone would be able to use it (hosted databases). I am unsure of SQLite FTI. I really can't see support of SQLite remaining beyond 2.4 because of the multi-server over a network requirement of 2.5 Hydra. Do you know what PostgreSQL does in as far as what is indexed? -Jon -- Scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner _______________________________________________ DBmail mailing list DBmail@dbmail.org http://mailman.fastxs.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dbmail
