RE: Windows SQL 200X Full Text search query quandry [spamtrap heur]

Paul,

 SUBSTRING(URLdescription,PATINDEX('#Searchstring#',URLdescription),256)

That worked perfectly. I had never used the PATINDEX command before so I
overlooked it completely.
A little massaging of the search string to make it a wildcard matching
pattern and all is well. Thank you.

 How would I pull just the 256 byte section of the ntext field URLdescription
 that matches the searchstring?

one way might be to use PATINDEX  SUBSTRING (see sql server books-on-line for 
details).

SUBSTRING(URLdescription,PATINDEX('#Searchstring#',URLdescription),256)
