With a Stemmer included in your analyzer 'testing' would actually be indexed as 'test' and therefore get found with a query for 'test'. Of course this won't help if you expect to find 'tree' when searching for 'tr', in this case you'll have to build wildcard queries from the terms of the query. Here's an example for a custom analyzer using a StemFilter: http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/90606#new Jens -- Jens Krämer webit!
