Then the analyzer you're using when parsing the query is stripping them. It must be different than the one you use when indexing somehow. At least that's the only explanation I can imagine....
Perhaps, somehow, you are using a default analyzer when you parse a query? Or you aren't specifying the field when you query and thus a default is used? Or you are using a PerFieldAnalyzerWrapper and dropping through to the default? or ???? Just for yucks, I'd try using WhitespaceAnalyzer on a query with something you *know* exists in the index for a particular field and work my way up to whatever your real problem is in small steps (since you can't post code <G>)......

Thanks Erik and Erick, I guess my question was rather unclear, but you guys answered it all the same : it is impossible for an analyzer to index something and having the same analyzer ignore the thing indexed during a search. If it makes everything clearer, during indexation, numbers are indexed, whether or not they are accompanied by letters ( 2003 and 4wd are both indexed). That's fine, since we want this. The problem occurs when I try to search for them : They are ignored. I know they are indexed because I ran through the index using Luke. Any thoughts regarding this problem ?
