hi

this follwoing code is throwing an error in sql server 2005

CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX ON table_name
[(column_name [TYPE COLUMN type_column_name]
[LANGUAGE language_term] [,...n])]
KEY INDEX index_name
[ON fulltext_catalog_name]
[WITH
{CHANGE_TRACKING {MANUAL | AUTO | OFF [, NO POPULATION]}}
]

the error is as follows :
Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Line 1: Incorrect syntax near 'FULLTEXT'.

what is wrong with the syntax?

wow! did you run that exactly as is?? did you copy it straight from books online?

that is not the code you actually run it's just showing you how to lay it out with various options. look at the transact sql syntax conventions link in book online, and also look at the examples books Online shows you at the bottom of a page

i wouldn't expect it to parse. the [ ] would translate to column names etc, so it's just nonsense to the parser, no?
