I found FULLTEXT (MATCH/AGAINST) indexes and the SOUNDEX function. Are there other MySQL features that help with Fuzzy searching? Soundex seems very useful, but I'm not sure how to apply it to multi-word strings. I'd also be interested in pointers to general info on writing fuzzy searches. A Perl example would be great. I think what I want it a kind of combination of SOUNDEX and the relevance value from MATCH/AGAINST. Is something like this possible? Thanks in advance. -bill --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
