And can there be Tsearch fields built based on fields in different tables? Where can I find the best docs for TSearch2? I'm looking for information pertaining to how TSearch can help in my situation, instead of building a view with a lot of joins causing absurd amount of rows returned. Or am I going to need to limit the tables a user can search at one time regardless? For instance, seems if I join my table of clients with contacts to return all the contacts with company info, no problem. I can also join my clients with activity *or* comments table. But if I try to left join all three of those tables in one view against clients, seems to return way too many rows. Of course, I will not want all those rows, but I can't get it to respond to queries. Meanwhile, I can create a view with just the comments table joined to clients, while the count is over 1 million records, select statements execute quickly. Is TSearch for me?
