Multivalue field as managed property in search not returning all values

Asked By donal.conlon

Hi.

I have a custom field that stores its value as a multi-value field.
If i configure this as a managed property for search, the search will
work correctly, however the value returned in search will always be
the last value.

For example:
If I have a document with custom multi-value field 'Categories' with
the values "Moss;SharePoint" (in that order).
If I do a search for "Categories = "Moss"; I will get the correct
results.
However, if I expose 'Categories' in the results (i.e. disaply it next
to author for each search result), I will always get 'SharePoint' for
this document.  It always only returns the last category value for the
document.

I checked the xml returned from search, and it always only returns the
last value in 'Categories' and not all values.

Anyone any ideas on this?
