hi Ian
but when I see lucene-3.0.0/src/java/org/apache/lucene/document/Field.java
all the constructors either take a String ad value or a byte [] array as a
value. Can u guide me that how to use NumericField or am I missing
something?
Thanks

You can store byte arrays, but you can't search on them. For integers
you can either pad them out with leading zeros or use NumericField. If
you use NumericField you'll need to use NumericRangeQuery as well.

Hi,
I am new to lucene. the constructors in Feild show that I can give the value
as byte[] I wanted to ask if I store a integer as a byte array the how it
will ve searched during search say file size!!!
because if I use text format the range search will be poor say fs of 10 12
20 30 50 100 101 102
