Hi Bhavin,
Thanks for your response. I tried the below Query query = new
PrefixQuery(new Term("name", "Z*"));
but it still the query returns 0 result.
Also can you please tell me how to search form JAVA collection?
Thanks,
Babu

Use "PrefixQuery" and if you are looking for phrase also then
"PhrasePrefixQuery"...
