Thanks for all the replies. It looks like Intermedia/Context/OracleText
processing is the way to go.
 
Is any of this supported by Standard Engine, or only Enterprise Edition
in Oracle 8/9/10?

Subject: Indexing for LIKE selection


We currently allow users to search a large table for a specific indexed
value. Performance is fine.
 
However they have now requested to be able to enter a partial string or
wildcards.
 
I am asssuming we will use the LIKE clause in the select statement.
 
Do we need to review how we index the table? If so, what is most
appropriate?
 
Oracle version is 10.2
