Unless the field is marked as required in your schema, TrieDateField will work if you have no value for the field. This means the field is not present in the javabin, xml, or json data sent to Solr for indexing, not that the empty string is present. What you have here is literally the string "NULL" -- four letters. This will NOT work on any kind of Trie field. Sometimes you can run into a conversion glitch related to a Java null object, but in that case the value is usually lowercase -- "null" -- which wouldn't work either. Thanks, Shawn
