I have thought about that. I couldn't figure out a way to make it work. Fortunately, I have managed to solve the problem (excepting prefix or wildcard searches) which is very close to what Rajesh suggested (also see my response to his response).
Thanks for taking a look.

Since the perfect answers to these situations lie in the constant tweaking and twiddling of analysis and tokenization, one way I've found to help is to evaluate result scores. In your "Ontario CA" example, limiting results to two vs. three vs. four is not necessarily so important as getting the first results accurate. Without seeing your test code, I'm guessing that a search for "Ontario CA" returns [3] and [4] ahead of any other results. You could try looking at the score for each returned hit, and based on some threshold (80-20 rule, maybe) display what's returned. Just a thought. -- j Notice: This email message is for the sole use of the intended recipient(s) and may contain confidential and privileged information.
