Remarks
The Microsoft Search full-text indexing service enables full-text queries on data maintained by Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2000. Microsoft Search both builds the indexes providing full-text query capability and participates in query resolution by providing result data during a full-text query.
With the FullTextService object, you can:
- Start or stop Microsoft Search.
- Configure the Microsoft Search service.
- Perform full-text catalog maintenance as required.
Microsoft Search is a service only available on Microsoft Windows NT® 4.0 or Microsoft Windows® 2000 Servers. To configure Microsoft Search using the FullTextService object, the connection must have Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 2000 administrator account privileges.
The ConnectTimeout, IsFullTextInstalled, and ResourceUsage properties of the FullTextService object are only compatible with SQL Server version 7.0 or later. However, the SQLServer2 object supports the IsFullTextInstalled property in SQL Server 2000.
