As I understand it though, there's no way to use the queryparser to construct an *ordered* phrase query with slop (which is what I think he's after), right?

I'd love to hear that the query parser has syntax for this though... --tim --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: java-user-unsubscr...@lucene.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: java-user-h...@lucene.apache.org
