Hi Dipti, just to make sure: are you aware of
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/DisMaxQParserPlugin This will handle the user input in a very conventional and user friendly way. You just have to specify on which fields you want it to search. With the 'mm' parameter you have a powerfull option to specify how much of a search query has to match (more flexible than defining a default operator).
