Windows Search 4 web interface

  • 772

I have Windows Search 4 running on an installation of Server 2008 x64, indexing two specific directories.

Is it possible to have a web interface to query this catalog?

On an older server (Server 2003) we are using the Indexing Service and the following sample to query that index:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms692879(VS.85).aspx

This is working perfectly, and we just want to take advantage of the Search 4.0 features/performance in the same web format.

I have looked at Search Server Express and it's not quite what we're looking for. I have also seen a couple references to use the Microsoft.Search.Interop but I don't know how to put it all together in an aspx page.

  1. Your question is really more about general programming then. Have a look at http://www.learnvisualstudio.net/ - there are some really excellent tutoruals on ASP.NET.
