: I thought of putting empty strings instead of null values but I think : empty strings are put first in the list while sorting which is the : reverse of what anyone would want.
instead of adding a field with a null value, or value of an epty string, why not just leave the field out for that/those doc(s)? there's no requirement that every doc in your index has to have the exact same set of fields. If i rememebr correctly (you'll have to test this) sorting on a field which doesn't exist for every doc does what you would want (docs with values are listed before docs without) -Hoss --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
