Why can the Thai and Chinese not use regular sentences and word delimiter :) So I have to stick to my LIKE thing, just to erase the FULL TEXT index I assume.

"The FULLTEXT parser determines where words start and end by looking for certain delimiter characters; for example, ' ' (space), ',' (comma), and '.' (period). If words are not separated by delimiters (as in, for example, Chinese), the FULLTEXT parser cannot determine where a word begins or ends. To be able to add words or other indexed terms in such languages to a FULLTEXT index, you must preprocess them so that they are separated by some arbitrary delimiter such as '"'." http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/fulltext-search.html -- <mack /> -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
