I have inherited a MS Access "application" and would like to trace all references to one of the fields. Is there a way to search for the field (all google hits are for querying the table). NOTE: I am not looking for any SQL help, I'd like something like the Visual Studio right-click -> find all references type thing. ...
I am searching for several thousand strings in a large directory tree which contains several thousand files. Each string can appear in many different files. What is the most performant way to perform this search in c#? I tried proccessinfo start with findstr (but it is painfully slow, because it opens every single file several thousand t...
What are some options for getting really fast 'Find in Files' searching in VIM? Our codebase is large enough that searching needs to work off an index. grep/vimgrep/etc are too slow. Indexing doesn't need to be particularly fast; I can index overnight. Thanks, [EDIT] I'm also working in a Windows environment. ...

I am struggling yet again with SQL with my search function. Basically I want a stored proc that splits up a string into words then for each word I want to check using Full Text Search if it is in any of 2 tables. If results are found in these tables it should add them to any results it found for the other words and return a set where t...
I have an asp.net web application written in C# using a SQL Server 2008 database. The database contains events with information across a number of tables such as event, venue, city and bands playing. In the ideal world I'd like my users to enter a natural lanaguage type query in a single search box along the lines of "The Who in Brisban...
I have a project in mind whose main selling point would be very good search results and very responsive (another Google for domain specific data). I'm not worried much about scaling at this point. Whats the best ORM, Search and UI framework combinations can one choose and what are the pros and cons. I'm mainly a Java programmer but this...
I have an external system that will send us events in XML. The event will include a link to an Office document and some other metadata. Now I want Sharepoint to index the document and metadata together. The result I want to achieve is - when a user search hits either metadata or contents of the Office document, I can render a page inclu...
Usually when we search, we have a list of stories, we provide a search string, and expect back a list of results where the given search strings matches the story. What i am looking to do, is the opposite. Give a list of search strings, and one story and find out which search strings match to that story. Now this could be done with re b...

Note - this would be different than say DataTable.Search() as the # of...
I have a custom Content Type inside a list that has over 30 items, and I have added several "managed properties" to the "crawled properties", in the SSP. All of them work except 1. The column "Synopsis" is a multiline field with no limit on it's length. It appears as a crawled property "Synopsis", and is mapped to a managed property 'as...
Hi! I'm using PHP in order to redirect some search query. There is some example of code here (click). And my PHP code is: audio_action.php : <?php $search_field = trim($_POST['audio_field']); $search_engine = trim($_POST['audio']); $url_params = preg_replace('/(\ )+/', '+', $search_field); $url = array('deezer'=>'http://www.deezer.co...
I have a large binary tree, T. T "matches". Some number of subtrees of T will also match. In fact, the matching subtrees need not even be full subtrees: they can be truncated, too. By truncated subtree, I mean that nodes in the subtree may not contain children all the way down - some nodes that have children may have their children r...

I have a series of tables that contain data I want to full text search. I've tried combining the tables with UNION, but the result loses its fulltext index so can't be fulltext searched. I don't think that putting the data into a temp table is the way to go. Is there someway that I can fulltext search these tables efficiently? Thanks in...
