how to improve query performance

2001-07-09 Thread purushottam naktode
Hi, I am pretty new to mySql. (In fact just built a databse and started working on it). I want to do keyword search on a column (clob). It may contain millions of records. How do I write query so that it is efficient. Thanks in advance for your time, Puru.
