Not to mention that searching without indices will be a poor choice when the database grows and these poor queries might impact the whole application. Also, indexing everything is bad because it will take longer to insert / update information, your database will be bigger than you need and you'll end up with a bad design. I'd go for the traditional search box + radio button for where to search / limit the search. -- Jorge Godoy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
