We need FULLTEXT searching on 2 character length words. If we recompile MySQL to do FULLTEXT indexes on 2 char length words is it going to work OK or will such short words undo the advantages of FULLTEXT ? Also will the data files be useable by other standard MySQL binary builds or will we have to use MySQLs built for 2 char length FULLTEXT words to access the data files ? thanks, - Sam. --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!?
