Hi Nilesh

When examine matches a document from your search term, it also calculates a 'score' indicating how well the document matches the term, and it is by this score that Examine orders the results, eg the most relevant match first.

When you are building your custom examine query you can add the OrderBy or OrderByDescending option at the end to specify the field to order by.

eg:

var searcher = ExamineManager.Instance.SearchProviderCollection["ExternalSearcher"];
var criteria = searcher.CreateSearchCriteria(BooleanOperation.Or);
var searchTerm = "fish"; //or read from form post / querystring etc
//build other criteria for your search
var query = criteria.Field("bodyText",searchTerm).Or().Field("title",searchTerm);
// ordering
query.And().OrderByDescending(new string[] {"title"});
//compile and get results
 var results = searcher.Search(query.Compile());

Thanks for the reply.

But how score is calculated?

is working on a reply...
