Issues Migrating To SQL Azure with Full Text Index

I've been in the process of migrating our website from our current hosting provider over to Microsoft Azure. One of the issues that I ran into when migrating some of our older sites has to do with Full Text Indexes. When trying to use the SSMS migration tool, I received an error message stating that Full Text Indexes are not supported.

Some Googling quickly found this link:

To perform the migration, I first deleted the indexes on the current database:

DROP FULLTEXT INDEX ON table_name

I then ran the migration tool to migrate the database over to SQL Azure. After configuring the users and permissions, I then recreated the catalog and index:

CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG Search AS DEFAULT;

CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX ON dbo.table_name(column1,column2) KEY INDEX primary_key ON Search; 

ALTER FULLTEXT INDEX ON dbo.table_name ENABLE;

ALTER FULLTEXT INDEX ON dbo.table_name START FULL POPULATION;
