Document Database

Greetings,

I was wondering if anyone here has implemented a document database, where
documents can be searched or added.

Did you place your documents as regular Web pages on your site, place them
in a database, or some sort of combination of the two?

Thanks!

Jonathan,

I has not (yet), but I did think about it. A lot depends on what sort of
searching you would like to have. In our days anything less than search on
any words in the document content will appear outdated. Therefore I looked
first in searching solutions. Someone recommended Lucene.NET -
http://www.dotlucene.net/. It's an open source project. I did not try it
myself.

Thanks for the refence. Unfortunately, I'm pretty new to ASP.NET so I'm not
really sure which way to go at this point.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
