: Think SQL of " ....where title like 'The quick%' ".
I solved this problem by having a variation of my field that was not tokenized, and did PrefixQueries on that field (so in your case, leave your title field alone for generic matches, and have a titleUntokenized field for PrefixMatches. Another approach i have not tried that should work as long as your "starts with" input is allways whole Terms (ie: "The quick %" and not "The qu%") is to use a SpanFirstQuery wrapped arround a a SpanNearQuery containing successive SpanTermQueries with no slop. -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
