[EP-tech] Re: Question about full text search (Documents in Advanced Search page)



Hi Lizz,

Thanks, yes, I have found the tables on my own and can manually insert 
terms and it works that way.  I just can't figure out where the 
disconnect is between what the Indexer is seeing and what it is or 
isn't, inserting in the db.

I will check the video for more hints though, thanks.

--Mike
