Create a term query on NumericUtils.floatToPrefixCoded(24.75f) > 2) Can I run into precision issues such that 24.751 will be matched as well? Nope... every numeric indexed value has it's precision indexed along with it as a prefix, so there will be no false matches. -Yonik http://www.lucidimagination.com --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
