Looked at that already the format is this:
public static Query parse(String query,
String[] fields,
Analyzer analyzer)
throws ParseExceptionParses a query which searches on the
fields specified.
If x fields are specified, this effectively constructs:
(field1:query) (field2:query) (field3:query)...(fieldx:query)
my query "value" will not be the same. This lets u query multiple field
with the same query, my query string will be different
f_name = rob and l_name = outar or address = some value
stuff like that.
Plus there is no way of specifying OR and AND's.
Thanks,
Rob O

Rob,
I believe MultiFieldQueryParser will do the job for you...
