The This index enables FATS to find each data record by specification of any terms in fractions of a second. The following C/C++ example demonstrates the use of the FATS matchcode commands:
FATS matchcode commands create a full-text index with the content of your data tables or -files.
Every word and every number is incorporated into the index, an "inverted list" is generated.

/*
-------> Creating Matchcode Index File
With the command "MC" Create Matchcode File, the most important
query facilities are determined already while creating the
matchcode index file. With the search-group flag ("I#"), several
logically related data columns can be registered in a common index
so that a query to this index resp. search group extends automatically
over all these columns. A matchcode file manages up to 32 search
groups that can be used for joined queries (using the "AND"-operator).
In this example the following search groups are defined:
Search Group Fields
I1 NAME
I2 JOB
I3 ZIP & CITY
The syntax of the command string:
szCmnd = "MC\{FileName}\{Flags}\{FileNo}\{Col1def}[\{Col2def}]"
FileName Filename, perhaps with an additional path
(i.e. C:/DATA/CUSTOMER.FMS or CUSTOMER.FMS)
Flags Reserved, not used at the moment
FileNo File number
Col#def Definition of data column # (flags, separated by comma).
The content of the corresponding data columns is transferred
the commands "MB", "MI" and "MD" later in the order determined
by this command.
I# The content of the data column becomes part of search
group #. You can combine several columns into a logical
search group (e.g. first name, surname).
C The content of the data column is edited for word overall
searching, i.e. a search for "motorca" e.g. finds
"motorcar" and "motor caravan".
N Numbers are handled as words, i.e. during a search
according to "150", "12150" e.g. is also found.
K#:# This switch activates the management of a primary key
for this matchcode index file. The first value after
the 'K' is the position of the data column within the
key (1 == first part), the second value specifies the
length of the data column valid as the key.
Further adjustments are possible and described in detail
in the user manual.

"MC\{Filename}\\{FileNo}\K#:#\I1\I2\I3"
The flag K#:# enables the management of a primary key within
the matchcode file. FATS normaly only uses the record number
during the generation of a result set. In specific situations,
if e.g. the physical record number is not known, or does not
correspond to the ID specified with the MB-command, the generation
of a primary key becomes necessary. The browser commands then also
make in addition to the record- or ID-number this key available via
the FATSKEY-variable to the application.
With the use of this flag, FATS generates a supplementary file with
the file extension .FMK which is used for the sequential storage of
the key.
