Hi,
Is full text search only for image column?
Thanks
No, also the (n)(var)char columns.

What's the benefit for full text search.
If I run a select statement in sql query, Is this using full text serach
automatically?

|||You need to use special TSQL language elements to use full text indexes, and there in is the power
of FT indexes. Read in Book sOnline about CONTAINS, CONTAINSTABLE, FREETEXT and FREETEXTTABLE.
