If description is your field name(say), then you could declare description in your schema.xml as non stored by specifying stored=false in the field declaration as in <field name="description" stored="false"> Manas

So what I'd like to do is tell Solr to return all fields except one. Does Solr support this? I imagine the syntax could look like this: fl=*, -description Since this is not working, is there any other way of doing this? Otherwise, I will have to manage multiple list of fields. Thanks
