This query will work, but I suspect this is a very inefficient way
of doing a full text search.
I was looking into that topic myself some time earlier, and I am going
to use an external (free, open-source) Java engine called "Lucene" for
text indexing. You may wish to read up about it on www.lucene.com. There
also was a JavaWorld article which expressed high praise for this
particular indexing package.
