SQL Server 2005 Full-Text Search - can I search for forward-slash characters?

Question

I\'m trying to use SQL Server 2005\'s Full-Text Search to find single forward-slash characters within my indexed column, without success.

Can anyone tell me if this

Answer 1

Most likely NOT. Full TEXT search is for TEXT. It is not possible to search for text delimiters and even specific words that are "kill words" (like "in", "on" etc. - that are happening way too often and that every non-trivial text will have anyway).

Whther or not "/" is filtered out is a question, bit I would somehow bet it is.
