Hi,
Is it possible to do a full text catalogue on an indexed view in SQL 2000?

It looks like you can only do tables and the functionality for indexed views
is in SQL 2005, is this correct?

Thanks

You are correct, you can only full-text index indexed views in SQL 2005.

Hilary,

Can you give an example of this? I've tried to create an indexed view that
contains a text column and when I attempt to create the index I get the error:

Msg 1942, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Cannot create index on view 'Test.dbo.FullTextView'. It contains text,
ntext, image or xml columns.

Here are my steps:

--Set the options to support indexed views.
SET NUMERIC_ROUNDABORT OFF;
SET ANSI_PADDING, ANSI_WARNINGS, CONCAT_NULL_YIELDS_NULL, ARITHABORT,
QUOTED_IDENTIFIER, ANSI_NULLS ON;
GO
--Create view with schemabinding.
ALTER VIEW dbo.FullTextView
WITH SCHEMABINDING
AS
SELECT Table1.OrderID, TextField1, TextField2
FROM dbo.Table1 JOIN dbo.Table2
ON Table1.OrderID = Table2.OrderID
WHERE Table2.Status = 'Open'
GO
--Create an index on the view.
CREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX idxFullTextView_TestIndex
ON dbo.FullTextView (OrderID);

When I run this, I get the error. I would love to be able to accomplish
what you are indicating in order to complete some performance testing since
currently the performance of full text searching frankly is horrible in the
situation I'm looking for.

You can't full-text index views in SQL 2000.

This is a 2005 database. I assumed it wasn't possible on 2005 either, until
I saw this post. If it's possible with 2005, I'm trying to figure out where
in my example below I'm going wrong.

The caveat to this is that this WAS a 2000 database. As I mentioned I'm in
the testing process and so I took the backup of the database, restored it
onto a 2005 installation, set the compatibility level to 90 and attempted to
run this. Is that process not sufficient in order to accomplish this?

Try varchar(max)

create table table1 (OrderID int not null identity constraint Table1PK
primary key,
TextField1 varchar(max), TextField2 varchar(max))
GO
create table table2 (OrderID int not null identity constraint Table2PK
primary key,
Status varchar(20))
GO
--Create view with schemabinding.
create VIEW dbo.FullTextView
WITH SCHEMABINDING
AS
SELECT Table1.OrderID, TextField1, TextField2
FROM dbo.Table1 JOIN dbo.Table2
ON Table1.OrderID = Table2.OrderID
WHERE Table2.Status = 'Open'
GO
--Create an index on the view.
CREATE UNIQUE CLUSTERED INDEX idxFullTextView_TestIndex
ON dbo.FullTextView (OrderID);
GO
