Hey John,
My understanding is that if you add a field with the same name as a
previous field added, you will be overwriting the value stored in the
document.
So if you add:
doc.add(Field.Text("sequence", "1"));
doc.add(Field.Text("sequence", "2"));
doc.add(Field.Text("sequence", "3"));
Afterwards, the field sequence would hold a value of 3.
I'm guessing that by now you have already tested that.

Subject: Custom sort/basic question
If I add keywords to a document at the same time, will they stay in that
order?
Create New doc A
doc.add(Field.Text("category", "toys"));
doc.add(Field.Text("sequence", "235"));
doc.add(Field.Text("category", "bears"));
doc.add(Field.Text("sequence", "63"));
doc.add(Field.Text("category", "trucks"));
doc.add(Field.Text("sequence", "56"));
Create New doc B
doc.add(Field.Text("category", "computers"));
doc.add(Field.Text("sequence", "7"));
doc.add(Field.Text("category", "bears"));
doc.add(Field.Text("sequence", "12"));
doc.add(Field.Text("category", "trucks"));
doc.add(Field.Text("sequence", "772"));
I want to sort on the right sequence number, so I need to find the right
category. If I iterator through doc.getFields( category) and find the
category I want is #2, then can I get sequence #2 and know its the right
one?
Or does everything get jumbled up in the indexing process?
