http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3441981/Full-Text-Search-on-SQL-2000-Part-1.htmI am not sure I understand the first question. But, I have enabled the full text at the database level. However, only table has it with a definition. When I go in Store\Full text catalogs, I cannot find any option in there that would allow me to have it as a separate file. I have done that like that on all other setups. But, on this, for some kind of reason, it got encapsulated into the mdf and that, I do not like.
