Lance - where do you see a negative query not working with Solr?
Should work fine as long as the field name is valid.

And, a negative query does not work, so if this is the only clause,
you have
to say:
*:* AND -field[* TO *]
Where *:* is a special code for "all documents".
It's like learning a language: there is the normal grammar, there
are the
unusual cases, and then there are the bizarre slang expressions.

I'd like to know if there's a way to query for not having a field

Something like saying "I want all the docs that have field A empty".
Is that possible?
Sure is....
-field:[* TO *]
that'll match all documents that do NOT have terms in "field"
