The question is indeed wrong. Sry for the inconvenience. Actually i should have asked this way! Am trying out executing the demo of lucene 1.4.3. When i run a file for the first time, the index is properly getting created. When i run the indexing for the second time with a different file, the file "_1" , a CFS file in the index folder is getting overwritten, i.e. i couldnt find the index created for the previous file i used. So kindly let me know about the cause of this problem and a solution too. I would also be happy if anyone let me know from which version the index will be appended. Thanks in advance. M.Dhivya
