Full Text Search

  • Hi,

    I am trying to work with FORMSOF INFLECTIONAL for searching the Full Text engine, however I seem not to be able to use NEAR with FORMSOF INFLECTIONAL.  has anyone successfully got 'NEAR' to work?

    Thanks

  • I don't think it will work. Look at the syntax in BOL:

    < generation_term > ::=

         FORMSOF ( { INFLECTIONAL | THESAURUS } , < simple_term > [ ,...n ] )

    < simple_term > ::=

              word | " phrase "

    SO you can only use a word or quoted phrase, not a proximity term.

    Thank you for your reply, I thought it was not possible, worth a try though 🙂

    I managed to get the results I required using weights and rank.

    Thanks

    Andy
