Hi Karl, I have discovered that with range queries you *must* ensure there is a space on either side of the dash. That is, [1971 - 1979] rather than [1971-1979]. If you don't, Lucene will interpret it as [1979 - null]. To illustrate a bit more, here are some result totals that I get on my index: pub_mo:[07 - 08] --> 8370 (note the spaces around the dash pub_mo:[07-08] --> 2133 (note the absence of spaces) pub_mo:[08 - null] --> 2133 pub_mo:(07 08) --> 8370 (note the use of parentheses, not brackets) Just put the spaces in and all should be OK.
