Daniel, I've already addressed this issue a few months ago on the lucene-users list. My improved version of MultiFieldQueryParser is at ftp://ftp.parc.xerox.com/transient/janssen/SearchTest.java. It works with either OR or AND. I'll file a bug report with this patch. In the meantime, the class NewMultiFieldQueryParser in SearchTest.java will do what you need. Unfortunately, the change from Lucene 1.4.1 to 1.4.2 inexplicably broke the Lucene API. I've been told it will be fixed for 1.4.3, but for now either use 1.4.1, or patch the class for 1.4.2.
