Ryan. You do not need NEAR ON for this. But set EXACT OFF. Just

SEEK('     12345')

will work. You can seek just for the first part of the index key. However, I suspect that you are not matching the first part of the key. Display you key for the record ie. field1 and display the string you are using to search ie. ' 12345'.
