Hi Ian, Actually im able to do wildcard searches on all the fields except the "filePath" field. I am able to do both the leading and trailing wildcard searches on all the fields, but when i do the wildcard search on filepath field it is somehow not working, an eg file path would look some thing like this "\Samples\F1.cls" i think because of "\" present in the field it is failing. when i do a wildcard search with the query "filePath : *" it is indeed returning all the docs in the index. But when i do any other wildcard searches(leading or trailing) it is not working, any clues why it is working in other fields and not working on "filePath" field.
