So the question is, does anyone know of a simple way to get the zcatalog to also find substring matches on a textindex?

For Text Indexes you can use wildcards like * and ? in searches. So that searching for Foo* would find Foo, FooBar, fool, etc. I'm not sure if this works for Field or Keyword indexes though, I haven't tried it. My though is it only works for text indexes which should help you anyway.

Well, this sounded like it would do just fine, however, it doesn't seem to work. :( I'm using basically a zsearchinterface, and if I enter something like inter*, it comes up and says there was no matches, despite being able to find plenty of matches if I enter internet. Also, the and and notand don't seem to work either. Also, entering internet* also turns up nothing. I didn't setup Zope here, so I'm wondering if something could have been missed out then that could cause these things to not work? Or perhaps a version too old? Or could it be a problem with my dtml not talking to the Zcatalog in the correct manner? TIA Peter Armstrong
