RE: Quick Find isn't finding all records that contain a value
Hello,
When full-text search is enabled, the leading wildcard will not be needed and/or utilized. The full text catalogs are based on full words, so when searching for 445, it would not find F00445. If you had 445 in the middle of a sentence in a text field, and that field was enabled for search, it would find that result.
If this specifically is the type of search you would need to use as a hard requirement, you likely would want to stick with standard quick find instead of using full-text search. With this, you can use a leading wildcard, and it would return both results, though that comes with a performance hit due to the need to full scan the table to find the result. This performance hit can be reduced by forcing a Recompile of the query with a query hint, but even with that the search would still take time to complete in that format.
Thanks,
