Book Online at MDSN Site

Someone that works with me would like to be able use the search and index
function of Books Online documentation that you get with the desktop version
of SQL Server 2005 Books Online to search and index into the MSDN website
documentation of SQL Server 2005 Books Online. Is there some place on the
web where he can go that provides a search and index function into SQL Server
2005 Books Online documentation, much like you get with the desktop version
of Books Online documentation for SQL Server? He doesn't what me to install
the desktop tools for SQL Server on his workstation for some reason.
How about our new search feature we just released on MSDN
http://search.live.com/macros/sql_server_user_education/booksonline? The
link provides a scoped search of Books Online topics.

|||One more thought. You can download Books Online to the user's desktop
without installing the desktop tools from here: Download the latest version
of Books Online from
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2005/downloads/books.mspx.
Maybe the user would be okay with that as an alternative.

link.
