Hi Erik,
Probably I celebrated too soon. When I tested {!field} it seemed to work as the
query was on such a data that it made to look like it is working. using the
example that I originally mentioned to search for Tom Hanks Major
1) If I search {!field f=displayName}: Hanks Major, it works
2) If I provide partial word {!field f=displayName}: Hanks Ma, it does not work
Is this how {!field is designed to work?
Also I tried without and with escaping space as you suggested. It has the same
issue
1) q= field1:"Hanks Major" , it works
2) q= field1:"Hanks Maj" , does not works
Regards,
Dinesh Babu.

But also, to spell out the more typical way to do that:
q=field1:”…” OR field2:”…”
The nice thing about {!field} is that the value doesn’t have to have quotes and
deal with escaping issues, but if you just want phrase queries and
quote/escaping isn’t a hassle maybe that’s cleaner for you.
