As you can see by the second example, an ISBN can have letters as well as numbers in it, so it cannot be represented by an integer. Text indexes seem to ignore 'words' that contain numbers, though.
Any suggestions?
A field or keyword index would work. Or you can make a very small change to splitter.c to stop it from ignoring numbers. Which is something I'd like to see as a standard feature of Catalog, actually. I can't think of any instances of using a text index where I did *not* want words with numbers indexed, and have a number of instances where I *do* want words with numbers indexed. Actually, the same applies to pure numbers, as well. --RDM
