Thanks Eric, I have looked at the way the documents were indexed and they are using 90% of the code using in chapter 2 and 4 of your book LIA. except for the stop words. I will try to use Luke to see if there are any numbers indexed first.

Try the tips here: http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-lucene/AnalysisParalysis - you need to analyze your analyzer and ensure what you think was indexed actually was. Also, look into using Luke - http://www.getopt.org/luke/ - to see what makes your index tick. > my concern now is if there is an error with the way the indexing was > do I have to reindex the documents? Yes. That's just the nature of how it works. Getting the analysis right is important stuff, and if you didn't index it, you can't search for it! Feel free to share more details of your analyzer, and we'd be happy to "analyze" it.
