Fred,

Full text is not part of BDB XML at this time.  Like many
features, it's on the long-term list.

What is available is a substring index that can be used to
optimize fn:contains() calls, and meets *some* full-text needs.

Also, there have been user applications that integrate BDB XML
storage with Lucene to provide full-text search.  I'm not sure if
any of them are listening.  If so, feel free to respond.

Regards,

George
