  • 0

To do text search for wordA, wordB and wordC right now I’m doing it this way:

SELECT * FROM 
    mytable 
WHERE
    MATCH (field1) AGAINST ('wordA' IN BOOLEAN MODE) OR
    MATCH (field1) AGAINST ('wordB' IN BOOLEAN MODE) OR
    MATCH (field1) AGAINST ('wordC' IN BOOLEAN MODE)

Is there a more compact way of writing this?
