Hi Roland, I did this: http://search-lucene.com/?q=sort+by+function&fc_project=Solr&fc_type=wiki
Which took me to this: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FunctionQuery#Sort_By_Function And further on that page you'll find strdist function documented: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FunctionQuery#strdist I hope this helps.
