Hi guys i messaged before regarding mysql 4's search capabilties, i am doing up a scope for a tape library database change over from access , there is 100,000+ records, i am trying to find the most effiecient way to build the search capabiltiies, there will be fields like title, tx date, reporter, user etc ..
the way i design my tables is usually have tables like reporter and user and join with keys ie reporter: reporterID reporter user: userID user program reporterID userID and then join the tables that way , would this slow it down in anyway when doing a search against it , also is match against my best way of doing a boolean search , also the current access db has a keywords field , and then is searchable against that to find the entry quicker would this still be needed , and also with indexing , how many fields can i index at once in a table , and for the content text field , if i remove the keyword search , i would prob need the text in this searchable , would full text indexing speed up the search and how could i achieve this ? let me know thankyou. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
