This article, by Jerry Wood, shows a nifty little script, which, with just one ASP page, allows you to dynamically search a column in a table using a string comparison. This one script can be used over and over due to its dynamic nature! Hopefully this script will save you valuable time by cutting down on the often repetitive task of creating small, searching scripts...

So how do you take that search form with multiple fields and use it to efficiently query your database for matching records? The simple way is just to take whatever the user did or didn`t enter into a field and match it against a database field.

Have you wanted to allow your users to search through your website, checking for files that contain a particular string? Using the FileSystemObject, you can search through all of the files in a particular directory that contain a particular string.

We`ll start by coding the first ASP page, Search.asp, which contains a simple form...

I was thinking one day, wouldn`t it be nice if any given web site knew what I was specifically looking for when I arrived? I think it would be very helpful.
Then I started thinking about it a little more, and decided it was time to do something about it. At first, I sat down and wrote a letter to my congressman, but then decided he probably would have no idea what I was talking about, so I would have to resort to getting down and dirty with the code myself...

There are many ways to implement a search on your site - I asked you to pick from three of them in the search survey I did recently.
The method that most people picked entailed me reading every page on the site and hand-picking keywords. These keywords were entered into a new table, ArticlePages. You can get the source code for the entire site, including the database, here...

Microsoft Index Server is a useful service for automatically indexing and searching static files located on local hard drives. Index Server indexes Office documents, HTML files, and more. The service can be used either locally to find local files over the intranet, or on the web to search over a website. The Index Server service has been around at least since Windows NT 4 and has been simplified in Windows 2000 Server...
