Thanks, Aaron.  I went through your blog and it makes a lot of sense.  Given 
that Lucen is asp friendly, can I call the library from mssql?  Where does the 
indexing gets stored?  Do I need to provide a database for do files I need 
indexed, and for the index as well?  May be my questions are a little bit too 
entry level.
