Like a charm Dan, like a charm. I'm going to write this up and post it on

Spell checker

Right. A copyField just copies data from one field to another during the 
indexing process. You can copy one field to n other fields without 
affecting the original.

If you are using the default solrconfig.xml, a requesthandler should 
already be set up for you (but you should need a dedicated one for 
production: you can just embed the spell checker component in your 
default handler). Just query the example like this:

http://localhost:8983/solr/spell?q=ANYTHINGHERE&spellcheck=true&spellcheck.c
ollate=true&spellcheck.build=true

Note the "spellcheck.build=true" parameter.

Cheers,
Dan
