search ms word documents' contents by search patterns

[peter]

Hi
I want to search all ms word documents' contents in a fold by search
patterns, like searching 'Wind' and 'Rain' not 'Hail'. Then return all file
names that meet the searching criterion.

Thanks

Peter

Peter,

You are going to have to access those documents through Automation to
perform the search. I'm sure the document object in the word library has a
method to perform a search of the document.
