Thanks for the clarification. I had assumed that to be the case, but assumptions have a tendency to come back and bite me in inappropriate places. By pointing that out, you've probably saved me from beating my head against the wall in the near future : -).

The big stumbling block I have at the moment is understanding whether Terms can be used to find something like a phrase query, proximity query, or boolean query. I think the answer is no, two different concepts. But I also tend to think that the wheel has already been invented to find how many times a phrase (i.e. "Lucene in Action") appears in a document. Before I go digging through the source code, and possibly creating some rather embarrassing hack(s), I thought I would check to see if there is a 'right' way to go about this.

Alternatively, any suggestions on what to google, or where to look to educate myself would be welcome as well.
Cheers,

Sean

Yes, see the Javadoc for IndexReader.termPositions().
    I'm probably missing the obvious here, but I assume this refers to
the analyzed terms (i.e. individual words, possibly transmogrified by
the analyzer).


Just to respond to part of your mail:

Terms do not necessarily come from analysis... they could be specified directly using Field.Keyword() for example. Any _indexed_ field has term(s), with the possibility that the indexed field is analyzed or not.
