Hi all, This is probably a dumb question...
I am in the planning stages for a database project, where I will need to store a bunch of documents in both PDF and MS Word format. Assuming that the documents are stored as binary in the database, suppose I want to be able to search the database for text that is included in these documents. Is there any way to do text searches on the contents of binary data in the database, or do I have to implement something like a Keywords field and a Description field containing specific words or phrases that are in the stored document, and do a full text search against that? This is probably the most obvious answer, but I wasn't sure if there was a mechanism for searching directly in the files. Thanks! -Erich-
