Question
I had installed sql server 2008 express edition with tools but I need to use full text search which i understand is missing in the edition that I have.
How do I go about upgrading to get full text search feature? As it was an online installation I don't have any installation media stored on my computer
Can I use something else?
Solution
There is a downloadable version of SQL Server 2008 Express Edition with Advanced Tools which does include full text indexing. Freely downloadable from Microsoft web site.
OTHER TIPS
You should run "SQL Server 2008 Express Edition with Advanced Tools" installation and specify "configure existing installation" option.
