Indexing for Word documents

I have approximately 100 Word documents (meeting minutes). They range from 2
to 6 pages each. Recently, I’ve had to refer back to some of the older files
and used the Windows ‘search’ to find what I needed. Is there anyway to
create and index for various phrases or subjects included in these multiple
documents? I would like to have something that coworkers could refer to when
needing similar information. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
Note- I’m using Word 2000.
 
Check out Google desktop search. While you could index these documents in
Word, you are talking about a big project, in my opinion.
