Third time I've written this - Google Groups keeps losing my posts
after I click send.... or maybe they'll all show up an hour later. :(

Wouldn't it be more efficient to use attributes instead of searchable
fields for strings?  Is that supported?  I get this error when I try
to do that:

Cannot automatically map attribute listing_type in SourceListing to an
equivalent Sphinx type (integer, float, boolean, datetime, string as
ordinal).
You could try to explicitly convert the column's value in your
define_index
block:
  has "CAST(column AS INT)", :type => :integer, :as => :column
