Hello,

I’m trying to implement a weaviate database with question and answers. My idea is to search if a particular question is already in the data base, and I’m using this code:

```auto
response = (
            client.query
            .get("Questions", ["answer","question", "technology"])
            .with_near_text({
                "concepts": [prompt],
                "distance": distance    
            })
            .with_where({
                "path": ["technology"],
                "operator": "Equal",
                "valueText": str(technology)
            })
            .with_additional(["id", "distance"])
            .with_limit(2)
            .do()
        )

```

Where “prompt” is the question that I want to introduce.

I’m using the distance parameter, but I only want to compare the distance of my questions, with the questions inside, not with the answers , it can be done? If yes… how?

Thanks!

hi @garcia.e !!

Whenever you do a nearText without a `target_vector`, you are comparing `prompt` against all vectorizable properties.

Not sure how your collection was created, but you have two options:

1. Intentionally let only `question` property to be vectorizable, by setting all other properties to `skip_vectorization=True`  
with that, you only get 1 vector, that will be the representation of only your question.

- Create a named vector only for your question, and when doing the nearText, specify that named vector as your target, [as described here](https://weaviate.io/developers/weaviate/config-refs/schema/multi-vector).  
You can have two named vectors. One for the entire object, and a second one for only the question property. Of course, this will double the usage of your embedding service, as for each object, it will vectorize it twice: one for all properties you point, and another one only for question.

Let me know if this helps 🙂

Thanks!
