1: Making objects searchable
Posted by James Bennin on 08/20/03 07:20 PM
I've been trying to figure out how to make objects searchable.  I've been reading some of the materials on the subject but I still do not understand the process.  I know I have to choose the object type, implement FtsContent Provider and then add triggers, but in the midst of all that, how do I get it accomplished?  Can someone step me through this whole process (step-by-step process)?  It might be pretty basic but I am still pretty new at this.

Thank you

James, you might look at this document:

If you're willing to write up some documentation on how to do this, maybe the folks that know how to do it will be more keen to respond. I personally don't know the answer to your question.

You can also look at the service contracts doc, linked in from:

I think this is an area where documentation is lacking 😟
