Could some more experienced users suggest a solution to my problem. I have documents which contain multiple terms and phrases, and I wish to collect documents which match only the term I query for.

For example:
Doc1 contains,
  species:"homo sapien" Mammalia

Doc2 contains,
  species:"homo sapien"

I wish to collect documents ONLY with "homo sapien" but a search for species:"homo sapien" returns both documents as they both contain the phrase.
I have written code to cache every term for every field an I hoped that I could do the search - species:"homo sapien" -species:Mammalia. Unfortunately the terms homo and sapien seem to be separate. So when I collect every term to use with the "-" operator I end up with a query thus
species:"homo sapien" -species:(homo Mammalia sapien)


which isn't the same.

Can anybody suggest another approach?

Many thanks

Iain
