Hi Chris, Thanks for replying.
but if your goal, as you said, is to index 0000-00-00T00:00:00Z for > documenst that have no value in the date field -- i have to ask why? I was just trying to index the fields returned by my msql and i found this issue. So i asked in the group. Sorry for writing a confusing mail. Actually i just want to know why it is getting stored as ' 0002-11-30T00:00:00Z' on indexing the value 0000-00-00T00:00:00Z. Is it somewhere pre-defined?
