FullTextCatalogs Collection
This feature will be removed in a future version of Microsoft SQL Server. Avoid using this feature in new development work, and plan to modify applications that currently use this feature.
The FullTextCatalogs collection contains FullTextCatalog objects that reference Microsoft Search persistent data organized in full-text catalogs.
Properties
Methods
Remarks
With the FullTextCatalogs collection, you can:
- Create a new Microsoft Search full-text indexing catalog.
- Remove a Microsoft Search full-text indexing catalog.
To remove a Microsoft Search full-text indexing catalog
Use the Remove method of the FullTextCatalogs collection.
Note
Removing a Microsoft Search full-text indexing catalog removes all data maintaining catalog definition and is not recoverable. The Stop method of the FullTextCatalog object inactivates a Microsoft Search full-text indexing catalog and does not affect index defining data.
When using the Item or Remove method, the FullTextCatalogs collection supports member identification using either name or ordinal reference syntax. For example:
Set oFullTextCatalog = oDatabase.FullTextCatalogs("People")
Or
Set oFullTextCatalog = oDatabase.FullTextCatalogs(2)
Note
Using the FullTextCatalogs collection to create or remove Microsoft Search full-text indexing catalogs requires appropriate privilege. The Microsoft SQL Server login used for SQLServer object connection must be a member of the fixed role db_ddladmin or a role with greater privilege.
