Hi Doug -- Thank you for your feedback/interest. I plan to implement a simple WinForms client next week using Google API + Google Docs. I have got already loaded 1000+ docs on my free GoogleDocs account and I have checked how full-text search is working with that stuff when used from within browser. It works well although when a document is found the words are not highlighted - I thought about making not only Google API/Google Docs + WinForms Client but also a Browser control embedded into a WinForm to simplify browsing of found results. Because of the lack of automatic highlighting of the search target words that solution looks a bit problematic now - I will probably have to implement also custom highlighting within browsing control - some DOM programming will be needed probably.. Thank you. -- Shamil -----Original Message----- From: dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:dba-vb-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of Doug Murphy Sent: 22 ?????? 2011 ?. 20:56 To: 'Discussion concerning Visual Basic and related programming issues.' Subject: Re: [dba-VB] "Smart" fulltext search on large documents(data)base... Shamil, Very innovative approach. Good use of the low cost and high power offered by the "Cloud" services. I'll be interested in how this comes out.

Subject: [dba-VB] "Smart" fulltext search on large documents (data)base... Hi All -- I have a task to implement a system providing "smart" fulltext search over a large base of text documents. My current plan is to use Google Docs. I plan to get in the future 80 GB ($20.00 USD per year) hosted space on GoogleDocs, put all the subject docs there, and then use Google API to search via my documents base. That seems to be it? It should be even possible to create a simple (free?) Google Web Site as front-end to that GoogleDocs documents base? That GoogleDocs base/site is planned to be used by non-profit organization. Am I missing something? Additional overhead costs to keep that solution's stuff on Google site? And why I'm writing about that solution here in dba-VBA? - because I plan to implement a front-end to that application system as an WinForms application coomunicating with Windows API... Thank you. -- Shamil _______________________________________________ dba-VB mailing list dba-VB at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-vb http://www.databaseadvisors.com _______________________________________________ dba-VB mailing list dba-VB at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-vb http://www.databaseadvisors.com
