Would any one else say that enterprise systems (+150 tables) are mainly consisted of wizards.

Hiall, I have the following problem: I need to use forms containing collections (i will call them FCC), and I want to construct them dynamically, as I need to deal with quite large forms (more than 600 input fields).

Hi, I have an index where each document contains an untokenized ''url'' field. I would like to query the index for the most popular urls. In SQL I would do this via a Group By clause.
