I've seen questions asked on the list about alternatives to tsearch2, but not for the type of full text indexing I'm looking for. I'm looking for a non index-based full text indexing - one that stores the information as table data instead of index data. I do not need to implement SQL operators for searches. The application library would need to implement the actual word search. Indexes are too fragile. Our documents will be offline, and re-indexing would be impossible. Additionally, as I undertstand it, tsearch2 doesn't scale to the numbers I need (hundreds of millions of documents). Is anyone aware of any such solutions for PostgreSQL, open source or otherwise? Thanks Wes
