Joseph, If you can, get the latest Lucene and use NumericField to index your dates with appropriate precision and then use NumericRangeQueries when searching. This will be faster than searching for string dates in a given range. Otis ---- Sematext :: http://sematext.com/ :: Solr - Lucene - Nutch Lucene ecosystem search :: http://search-lucene.com/
