    NTEXT does not allow full search.... but NVARCHAR and NCHAR do.

    Index Server is a part of Windows 2000, I believe.

    I would like to be able to quickly search through possibly alot of Unicode text data. It seems that the best way to do that would be to put it in a database and index the text. The problem is that I am having a hard time
    finding an indexing engine that supports Unicode text. I know all the
    problems of word breaks, right-to-left, etc., but these problems are so "universal" that I would think a solution has been found already. Am I being too idealistic? When it comes to storing and searching text do we still
    have to "speak" a European language?
    Thank you for your suggestions.
