Thanks for that, it's funny, I've used search all this time for finding 
files and never realised that you could look within files.

Learn something new etc etc

Put the documents in a folder, then open my documents, and highlight the
folder.  Then alt f and e, then type in the search string and hit enter.

Subject: [access-uk] Searching Word Documents

Hi,

I was wondering whether anyone knows of a way to search the contents of
multiple word documents?

I want to be able to select any number of documents and then search for a
phrase without having to open each document and search individually.

A sighted friend uses google desktop which does this but I think this
application blows up Jaws - or so it seems when I've heard it mentioned.

Any ideas are much appreciated.

Karl
