Search file and within the file

[Anver]

Hi,
I have several files in a folder most of them are CVs in word format, I want
to create a query or access program to get the subject with some criteria -
any ideas?
If I search for a particular Text, that should check and matching file name
and also inside the word file.
I tried google desktop search, coppernic search and even the MS Search - but
nothing helped in a way I want.

I appreciate your valuable time.

Anver,

To develop a bespoke Access application will take much effort and involve
using Windows APIs. I suggest you don't want to do this.

Instead consider upgrading to Windows Vista that has enhanced search
functionality built in. If you are already using Vista then read up on
searches and tags.
