    Does anyone know how to change the default directory path for full text indexing?

     

    Thanks...Jeff

    Well Jeff, nothing I would recommend, but I was once confronted with this problem after using the Copy Database Wizard to migrate from 7.0 to 2000. I ended up reconfiguring the server to allow updates to the system tables and update the path value in the msdb table sysfulltextcatalogs to the new location.

    Sorry, nothing better but it did the job.
