Hi But the file I am indexing is very big and I don't know which word will contain the hyphen. The thing you suggest can be implemented only if there are some specific words in the file.
Apart from StandardAnalyzer I have got no option. Thanks a lot for your reply. Please suggest me how can I go ahead.

Hi You can simply create a PrefixQuery. However, if you're using StandardAnalyzer, and the word is added as Index.TOKENIZED, sotf-wa<something> will be broken to 'soft' and 'wa<something>'. Therefore you'll need to add the word as Index.UN_TOKENIZED, or use a different Analyzer when you index the data (for this field at least). Here's a sample code: // Indexing. Document doc = new Document(); doc.add(new Field("field", "soft-wash", Store.NO, Index.UN_TOKENIZED )); // Search Query q = new PrefixQuery(new Term("field", "soft-wa")); Does that help?
