Keyword Search Across Mult. Columns

  • I have a keyword search against a table that has around 10000 records. Many( about 2000) are duplicated due to the fact they are coming from an extract from a HP image dB. anyway, is it best to do a distinct, group by, or view, cursor, performance wise? i will be doing some scripting against the search term to see if it is numeric and so forth but it will be searching

    name varchar(100)

    desc. varchar(3000)

    keywords varchar(1000)

    size varchar(25)

    color varchar(25)

    thanks-chris

  • I would use Distinct myself...
