i have implemented it but it is not showing me the result
DECLARE @SearchWord varchar(500)
SET @SearchWord ='"4522741340 Babar abc "'
SELECT *
FROM ClientDetailDummy
WHERE CONTAINS((ClientDetailDummy.NHSNumber,ClientDetailDummy.Forename,ClientDetailDummy.Surname) , @SearchWord) ;
I have write this query and full text search catalogs on these three colunms , the given string data is exists in database table record but my query is not showing me even a single result.

Try adding "%" to the present search string. Multiple characters prefixed or suffixed will cause the current string to return nill.

I suspect you are trying to search words near to another. Please, see: Search for Words Close to Another Word with NEAR[^]
