Has every Sharepoint instance an build-in MSSQLFT ?

Iam asking this because Iam writing a tool which sends an MSSQLFT Query over the web services :_vti_bin/search.asmx

I want that tool to work with every Shareopoint instance!

Thx in advance

No you can't use MSSQLFT against SharePoint with FAST, so the best option is to use keyword queries if you want broad reach (see here)

Thx for the very fast answer: So you say to use: <QueryText language=xml:lang type={STRING|MSSQLFT|FQL}> searchQuery </QueryText> And as Type to use "STRING" because : STRING Applies to: Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 search and Microsoft FAST Search Server 2010 for SharePoint Indicates that the kind of query is keyword query. For information, see Keyword Query Syntax Reference. ?! – verklixt Apr 4 '12 at 10:09

Yes type="String" and then the query as Keyword syntax gives you the broadest reach – Per Jakobsen Apr 4 '12 at 10:24
Thank you very much. Sometimes its very difficult to find answers like this over the documentations of Microsoft. – verklixt Apr 4 '12 at 11:30
