All,

After applying the addition to the KMS_Config under the Indexing node to be able to index external directories, I wanted to see if it was possible to default the checkbox for "OtherDocs" under the Advanced Search to be checked.

Below is the code I added to the Indexing node:

<indexing>
  <table name="rkm_doc" stopfile="fultext.stp" type="documents"/>
  <table name="rkm_news_flash" type="news_flashes"/>
  <table name="rkm_attachment" type="attachments"/>
  <table name="rkm_general" type="general"/>
  <table name="rkm_dict" type="dictionary"/>
  <table label="OtherDocs" name="Other_Docs" type="external">
   <directory path="C:\program files\BMC\Service Desk Express\Application Server\MagicDoc" vg="Internal"/>
   <directory path="C:\Program Files\BMC\Knowledge Management Express\data\kms_data\ExternalDocs" vg="Internal~!~Self-Help"/>
  </table>
</indexing>

It looks as if the code that controls this is in search.jsp, but I believe can only be accessed by modifying the actual class that it resides in.

Is there a much easier way to do this, as I do not have access to the files required to be able to re-compile the required class files.

I even tried tricking the browser via the address, but no luck.  I have not found a flag to check the OtherDocs Checkbox.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Matt
