Thanks Shawn! I didn't notice the asterisks are created during copy/paste, one lesson learned :) Does that mean when fq is applied to text fields, it is doing text match in the field just like q in a query field? While for string fields, it is exact match. If it is a phrase query, what are the values for relate parameters such as ps?
