I'd like to implement fulltext search for a datatable ?

are there any .net libraries which support indexing/searching on the fly ?

+1  A: 

Lucene.NET.

Here's a blog post about how I used it in my application. http://ifdefined.com/blog/post/Full-Text-Search-in-ASPNET-using-LuceneNET.aspx

#1 - You can use the Lucene.NET "RAMDirectory" class. I don't have any personal experience with it.#2 - Yes. You design what identifiers to store in Lucene's index, so that you can relate the results back to your data.
