AHA! I am using the Search tab and have enteres the query : location:Z:\install\logs\archive.log.D20060406.T141958
the query details says the query was parsed to location:z so if I escape the colon I see the new parsed query as location:"z installlogsarchive.log.d20060406.t141958" So, lucence does not store the file path exactly?! It converts it all lower case! Is there some property I should turn on? Plus, it is not storing the backslash. Should I be escaping these in the index before storing them? It seems so. -Bill On 4/14/06, Bill Snyder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Oh, cool. Look at that. A neat tool made with thinlets.
