SPS Advanced Search Tools


From Matthew Cosier ... (spotted by Angus & Andrew)

I have been working on a toolkit to provide the web part developer the ability to run advanced boolean searches against the underlying MSSearch engine that is integrated with Sharepoint Portal Server 2003. I have written a managed assembly that provides the developer with a means of converting a standard google-style search string into an MSSQLFT WHERE clause that can be plugged directly into the MSSearch engine query packet to produce the needed results.

      Thanks for the plug Mark!

    I encourage all your readers to come check out the workspace on gotdotnet (http://workspaces.gotdotnet.com) as there has been a little bit more activity lately.

    I hope to get the tools into a production state over the next few months, if time permits!

    Thanks again!
