Hi Jan, Thanks for reply.
I have tried the first variation in your example (and again after reading your reply). It returns no results! Note: it is not a multivalued field, I think when you use example 1 below, it looks for both xyz and abc in same field for same document, what i'm trying to get are all records that match either of the two. I hope I am making sense.
