Just some genral qiuestions,

Does that mean the max. string that can be indexed
and therefore searched on is 500 chars? What exactly
is this limitation?

Can I just add words or append words to the existing
default stopword file? After I add words do I have to
reindex the fields or restart anything? (I'm using win32)

If I insert/add a record to a "fulltext table" do I have
to redo(reindex) anything? Assuming I'm using a recent ver.
of MYSQL.

Thanks, just genral questions...thanks.
