We are evaluating SalesForce and need to be able to do full text boolean searches of documents on SF. Results of searched words need to be highlighted within the document view. We need to find out if this is a viable solution before selecting SF.

The keyword field can hold up to 255 characters.
Depending on what kind of content you have, you might be able to create custom/tabs-objects to hold the information in question. Text within a custom object can then be searched on. But.. of course that's totally dependant on what your sitation is... custom objects might not do it for ya.
good luck!

I have an idea that might work, but I would like to get some more details offline. Can you drop me a note at bemerson at forceamp.com

Doesn't sounds like a great fit for SFDC unless you extract keywords from the resume upon insertion of the document, search on the keywords, and serve up the documents. Then, it might be a great tool.
If you really need full text searches on the document contents, it's of course doable with a custom s-control, retreiving the documents, searching, displaying highlights, etc., but I think it would be slow because the searches couldn't be done on the Salesforce servers and so the whole document repository would have to be brought to the app server (or browser) for your custom code to run.
