Can SolrNet do exact field value matches?

Question

The one thing I can't find in SolrNet is exact field matches. So, if my field contains exactly "My Name is James Bond," then I'm looking for something like this:

new SolrQueryExactMatch("FieldName", "My Name is James Bond");

I'm effectively looking for SQL-like searching:

WHERE FieldName = 'My Name is James Bond'

I'm wondering if this is a function of indexing? Do we index the field, but not tokenize it? If "My Name is James Bond" was a single token, I'm wondering if that would have the same effect?

Does such a thing exist in SolrNet?

It's not up to the client. See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7175619/apache-solr-string-or-text — Mauricio Scheffer, Mar 03 '15 at 19:18
So a simple SolrQuery against a string field will do what I want? — Deane, Mar 03 '15 at 19:39
Write this an answer so I can mark is as correct. Or should I just close as a dupe of the question you mentioned? — Deane, Mar 06 '15 at 15:07

I needed to store the field as a string not as text and then use SolrQueryByField on the value.
