Heres my index structure : Document -> contract ID - id (index AND store) -> paramName - name (index AND store) -> paramValue - value (index BUT NOT store)
When I get back 20000 hits, each document contains ID and paramName, I have no interest in paramName (but I have to STORE it for some other reason), can I not just get a plain java String Array of the contract IDs that matched ? ! -thanks for the prompt reply.
