Rob, just in case you missed it in the dialogue earlier, let me recommend to your attention the PerFieldAnalyserWrapper mentioned by someone else. This allows you to specify different analysers for different fields, but presents as a single analyser. So during indexing and searching to benefit from analyser and query parser, and can index and search all fields with the analyser - no problems therefore having fields which are not analysed.
For fields like Id we use our own version of keyword analyser which converts to lower case both on index and search but otherwise preserves the term entirely. The only slight problem is it makes it harder to use tools like Luke which use the standard analyser by default.

I use the StandardAnalyzer both to create the index and to query. The field is defined as: new Field("Id", myObject.Id, Field.Store.YES, Field.Index.NOT_ANALYZED) and is a string field. The result set back from Luke looks like (screencap): http://screencast.com/t/NooMK2Rf Thanks! --------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer This message and any attachments are confidential and/or privileged.
