This is from my memory, this solution is very clean and easy to implement. And it really works...!

lcTextToFind='mouse trap living toom'
lcWord=GetWordNum(lcTextToFind,1)
Select * from yourtable where lcWord$yourfield into cursor curdummy readwrite 
if _tally>0 and GetWordCount(lcTextToFind)>1
   For lnX=2 to GetWordCount(lcTextToFind)
      lcWord=GetWordNum(lcTextToFind,lnX)
      Select * from curDummy where lcWord$yourfield into cursor curdummy readwrite
   EndFor 
EndIf
