Given that I had the same problem as charismatic_evangelist@yahoo.com, I
tried the steps that you gave below. The instance of the Server that I
applied it to was the (local)(Windows NT) server, where my database resides.
Even after going through all the steps, and having turned SQL FTS on, the
full text search is still greyed out when I right click on the particular
table I need to be able to search. Any other ideas of what to do?
