Hi,

I'm using SQL 2008

I'm trying to create a full-text index on a table and populate it but for some reason it doesn't seem to contain any data.

I ran this SQL:

SELECT *
FROM sys.dm_fts_index_keywords( DB_ID('mydb'), OBJECT_ID('Indexed_Table') )

Steps I'm taking via SSMS

1. Right Click Table, and Define Full Text Index
2. Choose Unique Index
3. Select table columns to be eligible for full-text queries
4. Create Full-Text Catalog, give it a name
5. Now that its created, I clicked "Start Full Population" and it says success

For some reason thought I still don't get any results when I query the table or run :

SELECT *
FROM sys.dm_fts_index_keywords( DB_ID('mydb'), OBJECT_ID('Indexed_Table')

Any ideas why?
