Sometimes the documents are held in the database in IMAGE columns, other times I use linked servers to index documents held on the file system.  However, I noticed that I can't search the text in Office document properties such as "Comments" or custom attributes.  Specifically Word.  I have been trying to find official documentation from Microsoft indicating what the Office ifilters are supposed to index so I can say for certain if the extended properties of a Word document should be searchable or not.  I can't seem to find anything other than generic documentation that say that Office documents can be searched.My typical environment is Windows 2003/SQL 2005...however, the question is still applicable for Windows 2003+ and SQL 2005+.  Does any one have a page that describes this specific feature for ifilters?   Thanks so much in advance.</description><pubDate>Wed, 04 Aug 2010 15:39:22 GMT</pubDate><dc:creator>Stephanie Martin</dc:creator></item></channel></rss>
