CONTAINS full-text XML problem

sql server full text search:

I've noticed that the CONTAINS function in the SQL SELECT statement has a
strange behavior on XML. When I use a statement like:

SELECT * FROM T where CONTAINS(dcxml,'pesca')

where "dcXML" is the column name and "pesca" is the word I'm searching for,
it only finds XML docs in the form of:
<tag1>
<key>...</key>
<key>...</key>
<key>... pesca ...</key>
</tag1>

(pesca always in the last <key> of the set)

and skips those like
<tag1>
<key>...</key>
<key>... pesca ...</key>
<key>...</key>
</tag1>

(pesca somewhere else in the repeated tag set)

Any help?

Are you indexing the xml as text or in an image column? If you are indexing
xml in an image column which word breaker are you using?

MytyMyky,
Could you provide the full output from the below SQL script as this is
helpful in troubleshooting SQL FTS issues.

use <your_database_name_here>
go
SELECT @@language
SELECT @@version
-- May require setting advance sp_configure settings
sp_configure 'default full-text language'
EXEC sp_help_fulltext_catalogs
EXEC sp_help_fulltext_tables
EXEC sp_help_fulltext_columns
EXEC sp_help <your_FT-enable_table_name_here>
go

Thanks,
John

I forgot to mention a crucial detail. I'm using SQL 2005 Beta 2, so I store
the xml in a xml column.

Yes, that is somewhat crucial. Can we see an example of your query?
