I would like to create a stand alone application from which the user
can select a folder containing a bunch of word documents and then
allow them to search the contents of the word documents. I notice
there is a MS Indexing Service, but think this is more of a server
application. Is there anything that will allow me to search word
documents?

Thanks.
