Hello, Thank you for your quick answer. I use Luke to examine the index, but since I switched to FrenchAnalyzer, it says 'Not a Lucene index'. If I open the index files in a text viewer, the strings are in UPPER case. I do use the same analyzer to index and search. So, do I have to specify the FrenchAnalyzer not to be case sensitive? How to do that? Thanks a lot Florian
