Hi,

I am considering moving hosts and I want to backup my db, but without the full text as my new host wnt let me restore the db if it has full text indexes. I have tried to do a full backup and only select the database file but the control panel on my new host still tells me the backup has full text indexes.

Do I have to remove them from my live database to do this backup? This means my search will be down and ill have to rebuild them?

Thanks,
Conor

What I ended up doing was deleting the full text, then disabling full text on the db. Then I did my backup. Then i created all the full text stuff again. It was ok once you have all the sql query saved. Done in minutes.
