Thanks for your reply Erick. In Luke, its also not working. I tried to retrieving values from the field by specifying the field as the search field and then specify % as the search parameter which using StandardAnalyzer but nothing is displayed. Also while Luke shows the query details for other search values, it dosent show query details for search value of %.
I think it is not Tokenized in the index. Is there anything else i can do to be able to retrieve values from fields comprising of just %? Thanks for your assistance.
