Remarks
To enable full-text search on a SQL Server database for participation, enable the database using the EnableFullTextCatalogsmethod, then configure columns for full-text indexing and search using the FullTextCatalog object to define full-text catalogs.
A database is either enabled or disabled for full-text indexing and searching. When disabled, full-text index population is not performed for full-text catalogs defined on the database and full-text search in the database fails. A database may be disabled, and then reenabled without affecting full-text catalog definition.
Enabling a database for full-text indexing and search using the EnableFullTextCatalogs method does not alter full-text catalog contents. When enabling a database previously disabled, use the Rebuild method of the FullTextCatalog object to repopulate existing full-text catalogs.
