But you could also try putting parentheses around the words, like
mykeywords:(Compliance+With+Conduct+Standards)

I agree with Erick, your query string showed quotes, but your parsed query
did not. Using quotes, or parenthesis, would pretty much leave your query
alone. There is one exception that I've found: if you use a stopword
analyzer, any stop words would be converted to ? in the parsed query. So if
you absolutely need every single word to match, regardless, you cannot use a
field type that uses the stop word analyzer.
For example, I have two dynamic field definitions: df_text_* that does the
default text transformations (including stop words), and df_text_exact_*
that does nothing (field type is string). When I run the
query df_text_exact_company_name:"Bank of America" OR
df_text_company_name:"Bank of America", the following is shown as my
query/parsed query when debugQuery is on:
<str name="rawquerystring">
df_text_exact_company_name:"Bank of America" OR df_text_company_name:"Bank
of America"
</str>
<str name="querystring">
df_text_exact_company_name:"Bank of America" OR df_text_company_name:"Bank
of America"
</str>
<str name="parsedquery">
df_text_exact_company_name:Bank of America
PhraseQuery(df_text_company_name:"bank ? america")
</str>
<str name="parsedquery_toString">
df_text_exact_company_name:Bank of America df_text_company_name:"bank ?
america"
</str>
The difference is subtle, but important. If I were to do
df_text_company_name:"Bank and America", I would still match "Bank of
America". These are things that you should keep in mind when you are
creating fields for your indices.
A useful tool for seeing what SOLR does to your query terms is the Analysis
tool found in the admin panel. You can do an analysis on either a specific
field, or by a field type, and you will see a breakdown by Analyzer for
either the index, query, or both of any query that you put in. This would
definitely be useful when trying to determine why SOLR might return what it
does.

What it turned out to be was escaping the spaces.
q=(((mykeywords:Compliance+With+Conduct+Standards)OR(mykeywords:All)OR(mykeywords:ALL)))
became
q=(((mykeywords:Compliance\+With\+Conduct\+Standards)OR(mykeywords:All)OR(mykeywords:ALL)))
If I tried
q=(((mykeywords:"Compliance+With+Conduct+Standards")OR(mykeywords:All)OR(mykeywords:ALL)))
... it didn't work. Once I removed the quotes and escaped spaces it
worked as expected. This seems odd since I would have expected the
quotes to have triggered a phrase query.
Thanks for your help.
