Hi PHPUG,

Sorry for the OT post, I have a small problem with a search hinting 
table taking a long time to perform LIKE queries that you might have 
experience with.

Would an index on the varchar field speed up the LIKE queries? My 
understanding of indexes is that they only work for direct select 
queries, and would only improve a field = value query.

The queries are similar to LIKE 'act%'

Cheers,
Stig
