Extent of FullText Population

Is there a means to determine to what extent an existing
SQL table has been populated with the FullText indexing
service .... so to try to assess how long an
incremental population may take ?
Thanks
PhilipPhilip,
Yes, you can use one or more the system metadata, such as
FullTextCatalogProperty('<FT_Catalog_Name>', 'populatestatus') to monitor FT
Populations.
Note, you can also post FTS related questions to the newsgroup:
microsoft.public.sqlserver.fulltext
Regards,
John
