Ah good question. The data that I am needing to query on is not a set definition of tables or columns like a database is. Let me give two examples:
1.) I have data like name="Jeff" lastname="Richley" age="33" and I need to be able to query by any combination such as name="Jeff" age="33". But if I query with name="Jeffrey" there is no match. 2.) The name value pairs are not really controlled until the end user is inserting information or querying. I may have the data from the previous example and then have another that has address information and then something totally unrelated such as stock prices. The point is, I can't guarantee what exactly will be in the data. If you need any other information, let me know. I do realize that Lucene may not really be a perfect fit. That is why I am doing my research before the project gets ramped up. Once again, thanks for any help. Jeff Richley > An example (simplified, to be sure) would help a lot.
