Thanks for the quick response. Follow-up newbie question: If the fields are not stored, how is the server able to search for them after a restart? Where does it get the data to be searched?
Example: "bob" (firstname) is indexed but not stored. After initial indexing, I query for "firstname:(bob)" and I get my document back. But if I restart the server, where does the server go to retrieve information that will allow me to query for "bob" once again? It would seem that "bob" got stored someplace if I can query on it after a restart. My untrained mind thinks that searching for "firstname:(bob)" (after a restart) will fail, but that searching for "recordid:(12345)" (in my original example) will succeed since it was indexed+stored. (stored + indexed makes total sense to me; it's the indexed but NOT stored that I can't get my head around). Thanks!
