You should also make extensive use of analysis.jsp to see how data in your
field (1) is tokenized, filtered and indexed, and how your search terms are
tokenized, filtered and matched against (1).
Hint 1 : check all the checkboxes ;)
Hint 2: you don't need to reindex all your data, just enter test data in the
form and give it a go. You will of course have to tweak schema.xml and restart
your service when you do this.
good luck,
B
