Use Luke, Bhavin, use Luke. Yes, that's looking for the exact match. You are not performing a search and you are not analyzing that term you are looking for in the index. Otis

But its happening for all search strings...not only for friends... If i fire "friend" or "boy" then also its not showing any results while it has... Is it something like that docFreq is checking for only Exact match... - Bhavin ----- Original Message ----- From: "Otis Gospodnetic" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <java-user@lucene.apache.org> Sent: Wednesday, January 17, 2007 4:35 PM Subject: Re: IndexReader.docFreq Random guess: You are using an analyzer that stored "friend" (or some other stem), and not "friends", so term "friends" doesn't really exist in your inex - it's frequency is zero.
