What do you mean, Collation? I do not understand your question?

You can set the collation to arabic for individual columns when creating a table or you can add this by altering the table.

see books online to check for arabic setting.

Message "What do you mean, Collation? I do not understand your question?"

Let me explain what i mean:-

I have a table with two fields, the Arabic description and a English description. I have a a full-text index on both field one for the English one and one for the Arabic one.

When i issue my select statement on the English field i get the result the statement as follows:-

-- looking for account having a name called "cash"

SELECT * FROM JBMERP.DBO.AMASTER
WHERE CONTAINS(ACCTNAME,'"cas*"')

the same select i run on the arabic field :-
SELECT * FROM JBMERP.DBO.AMASTER
WHERE CONTAINS(aACCTNAME,'"ÕäÏ*"')

I Have no result


So, I am trying to change the full-text index --> preperties ---> Columns ----> Languages for word Breaker to be arabic but No Arabic Selection There

Regards

Do you use unicode for arabic field? Full test indexing uses mssearch service, may need check code page in OS.
