# IndexNumbers

Specify how to index numbers for the specified fields. If you configure `IndexNumbers` in the `[MyLanguage]` section, you can override the setting for individual fields.

Restrict the `IndexNumbers` settings for your language to a narrower set of data by defining an `IndexNumbersFields` configuration section and specifying which fields qualify.

Type one of the following values:

0 | Do not index numbers.
1 | Index all numbers (irrespective of whether they appear on their own or as part of a word).
2 | Index numbers only if they are part of a word (for example DRE4 or Y2K).

NOTE: You can use the per-field `IndexNumbers` settings only to restrict the setting for your language.

For example, if you index all numbers for a language, you can restrict to index only alphanumeric values in a particular field. However, if you do not index any numbers for your language, you cannot use index numbers for fields.

NOTE: If you do not specify the `IndexNumbers` configuration setting in a property section, its default is 0.

Type: | Integer
Default: | 0
Required: | No
Configuration Section: | `MyProperty`
Example: | `[English] IndexNumbers=1 [IndexNumbersFields] PropertyFieldCSVs=*/MYFIELD Property=IndexNumbers [IndexNumbers] IndexNumbersType=TRUE IndexNumbers=2` The Content component indexes the numeric terms in `*/MYFIELD` that satisfy `IndexNumbers=2` (non-numeric and mixed-alphanumeric), whereas all other fields index with `IndexNumbers=1` (all numeric terms).

NOTE: If you change this setting after you have indexed content into the Content component, you must reindex the content.
