Can I create a database as an index for OCR pdf files incorporating a keywork
search across all scanned images, including all text, not just file titles?
Not easily. Access is a relational database system optimised for
handling rigidly structured data; it doesn't have good tools for
indexing and searching unstructured or loosely structured text.
Possibly Windows' built-in indexing service will do all you need;
otherwise, a "desktop search engine" or "network search engine" is
probably a better bet than a relational database.
