Fulltext index disabled -- when & why?

Hi K,

Can you please send the script the SQL Compare produced to
support@red-gate.com? This might tell us why the full text capability was
disabled for your database. I don't know specifically which conditions cause
this to happen, but the script should enable and rebuild the catalogs for
you if it's disabled them in the first place!

Regards,

    If the source database has fulltext disabled and the target has it enabled, the fulltext property for the database will become disabled if there are any fulltext catalogs to drop.

    We are looking into fixing this now.
