Hi

What language are u using to talk to the database. Coz I know you
could write a reasonably simple search facility for an ASP/SQL(or
ACCESS) database system. You would simply take the search request
 from the user and go through all records in the DB and find out which
and list ones that match the criteria.

If you need specific examples of this, let me know. Otherwise hope
this helped

later, Brett

Hi, All.

I belong to a job networking group that matches candidates who want to
volunteer at community organizations or intern to gain real-world
experience to organizations that would supply the positions.

I'm part of a project to set up a web site for this group, including
the
ability to post and maintain resumes or positions and search for
matching candidates or positions. We are very early in the process.

This is basically like an employment agency. I've heard of a package
called DTSEARCH, which does what we want, but the web version costs
<nopricequotes>as-high-as-you-can-go-in-the-three-figures-
range</nopricequotes>,
which is a bit much for a nonprofit organization.

I've seen postings here about products that search web sites. We need
something that can search a database. Can anyone suggest other
products? Are there hosts that provide search capability on a
database?
Any thoughts or suggestions are appreciated. TIA.

Paul Kmecak
