Hi Gérard, Concerning the issue with the ":" character you can use the ClientUtils.escapeQueryChars() method to handle special characters that are part of the query syntax.
The complete list of special characters is in the source code. check out the following resources org/apache/solr/client/solrj/util/ClientUtils.java http://lucene.apache.org/java/2_3_2/queryparsersyntax.html#Escaping%20Special%20Characters 2009/9/8 Gérard Dupont <ger.dup...@gmail.com> > Hi all, > > I'm currently facing a little difficulty to index and search on date field. > The indexing is done in the right way (I guess) and I can find valid date > in > the field like "2009-05-01T12:45:32Z".

To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift. Quality First. Measure Twice. Cut Once.
