| Abstract: | One of the largest areas of growth in the computer industry is that of relational data base management systems (RDBMSs). Despite the plethora of such systems currently available, only a distinct few can store and manipulate unstructured textual data, thereby enabling users to manage correspondence and other documents more effectively. Full text retrieval software, which enables users to create a data base of documents that can then be queried in various ways, is the most efficient means of avoiding the heavy costs of manually storing and retrieving information. This article discusses full text retrieval software and its potential for any organization that needs a more effective document management system. |
