We have a database which contains records with data for various legal
filings. One of the fields for each record is an actual embedded Word
document of the legal filing for that record.
We would like to be able to do queries for terms within those Word files. I
know I can just put all of these files in a folder and do a Search through
Windows, but we'd like (1) not to have to replicate storage of these files,
and (2) have all of our queries able to be executed from a central location.
I've done some test runs where I search for strings in the OLE Object field
that contains the Word documents using expressions such as
Like "*right of first refusal*"
but I got zero results, even though I know that string was in some of the
documents.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
