Ah! It makes sense now... Thanks for the clarification Hoss. I think it'll work in my case as I need to perform this calculation for every search...

That does not apply in my case - maybe I am missing a : point here. : The weight field I was talking about is only for the calculation Otis is suggesting that you set the boost of the document to be your weight value. That way Lucene will automaticly do your multiplucation calculation when determining the score The down side of this, is that i don't think there's anyway to keep it from influencing the score on every search, so it's not something you could use only on some queries. -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
