I do have my fields as strings not text, so I am going to play around with using the "text". If I continue to have problems, I will post the additional information you are requesting.

With a schema field type that is properly configured, the query you are trying to use (with quotes) should work, as long as it is being directed specifically to the correct field as Erick mentioned. Note that if you change your schema to make this work, you will need to entirely reindex. Nearly any of the "text" field types included in the example schemas will do the job. The "string" or "strings" types in the examples will NOT work, because they do not break the text into multiple tokens (search terms). I think you're probably trying to search a field that is using one of the latter types. Can you share your schema and the name of the field that you are querying? Your followup message tells us the version of Solr (6.5.1), so the most likely filename for the schema will be "managed-schema" with no extension. If there have been significant changes from an example in your solrconfig.xml file, it would be a good idea to share that too. Thanks, Shawn
