You're over-thinking things a bit ;-) if you want to search on it: index it If you want to return it in search results: store it Those are two orthogonal things (even for StrField). Why? Indexed means full-text inverted index: words (terms) point to documents. It's not easy/fast for a given document to find out what terms point to it. Stored fields are all stored together and can be retrieved together given a document id. Hence search finds lists of document ids (via indexed fields), and can then return any of the stored fields for those document ids. -Yonik http://lucidworks.com
