I am in need to Install SQL server 2005 Express edition with Full Text Search capability. I don't know what to download and the order of installing the Database management system. Could someone provide me link to download the version with Full Text Search [as default 38Mb setup file does not have this feature].
Also step by step instruction to enable Full Text Search during the installation.

Full Text Search features are available in
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services
Microsoft® SQL Server® 2008 Express with Advanced Services
Installation and configuration are pretty simple, hope you have already installed express edition.
Give it a try!

You will not be able manage Full Text Catalogs via SSMS.
SQL Server Management Studio Express
- You cannot update the full-text catalog by using SSMSE. You can use sqlcmd utility or Windows Scheduler to update the full-text catalog.

@Deeptechtons - Please update your question or create a new question to ask this particular issue; meanwhile I'll check the issue with SSMS Commented Mar 8, 2011 at 6:20

1Votes Up! sheesh doesnot allow me. But i think SQL Server Management Studio allows you to do that. Which btw comes packaged only along with Server 2005 Enterprise editions. Thanks helped me lot Commented Mar 8, 2011 at 10:31
