Jerry, there are several reasons other members might have stayed quiet. I will give you mine. Your question did not make sense to me and it would be helpful if you could elaborate a bit without being too verbose.
I am guessing you are looking for something like the EXCLUDE statement in SQL. I am not aware of any Lucene method that would do it. But you could approach it by storing the *fieldname* itself as a value in your index and query. hth On Wed, Dec 16, 2009 at 1:17 PM, Jerry Camel <rlrc...@msn.com> wrote: > Anyone? ...
