Hi,
I am not sure the above approach will be very effective.
Doc files are from MS Word and will be in their proprietary format. While it does store the text unscrambled in there, it does add extra characters to denote table endings etc.
You are probably better using either regualar expressions to do the searching, or open the file using com objects and then using com interaction to search the file. If you go the com route, then i think you will need MS Word installing on the web server to register the components necessary to interact with the word documents.
Please feel free to correct me on that last point if i am wrong.
Regards
Simon C
