# SplitNumbers

Set `SplitNumbers` to `True` if you want IDOL Content Component to split alphanumeric terms (such as Y2K or CBF4) and store them as separate terms. This option reduces the number of indexed terms (when you have set IndexNumbers to `1` or `2`). By default, IDOL Content Component does not split alphanumeric terms.

NOTE: The `SplitNumbers` setting affects the way IDOL Content Component stores the terms, but does not allow you to search for the split chunks of the term.

Additionally, if you want to use Wildcards to search for numbers, you must set `SplitNumbers` to `False`.

When you set `SplitNumbers` to `True`, you can also set either AlphaNumericTermChunkSize or NumericTermChunkSize to `-1`, to prevent splitting for either alphanumeric or pure numeric terms.

Type: | Boolean
Default: | False
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | Server

NOTE: This configuration parameter is a permanent setting. If you want to change this setting, you must initialize your index.
