I have cfsearch for Word documents in a directory, but it is not returning the results as I expect. The document titles are at the top (usually with one row, or with two rows if the title is long) of the document (all Word documents), but cfsearch doesn't pull out some of document titles. If p

So you are saying sometimes the title is right, and sometimes not? Verity tries to find the title from the metadata of the document when indexing. Did you check the documents with bad titles to make sure that they are set up right? As for your second question, yes, using CF7. Simply add the contex

Open the word documents and check the meta data. Ensure it is set to what you think it is. Also, do not forget that if you change the information, you then need to update the index. Verity won't know the file has changed unless you ask it to reindex the file. On 7/5/06, John Lucania <[EMAIL PROTEC

I don't use Word myself, just Writer, but there are Document Properties for each Word doc. Reindexing: Verity creates an index, much like what you would see in a book. Now imagine you add a new chapter to the book. Obviously the index has to be updated. Ditto for removing a chapter. The CFINDEX ta

John - open a word doc that isn't indexing with the title you'd like. Once it's open, click File > Properties and you should be able to access the metadata. I told you that from memory, but if it's not correct let me know and I'll run it down further. On 7/6/06, Raymond Camden <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

Hi, I found this quote in the docs for MX 6.1 under 'composing search expressions': "if a document field named DATE is defined, you can search for documents dated prior to and including December 31, 1999 by entering DATE <= 12-31-99 in your search." Now, if this is true, theoretically I could

After rereading your post, I believe the doc is referring to the indexing of files, like Word docs, that have a date property. I don't believe you can do this with custom indexes. On 8/18/05, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi, > > I found this quote in the docs for MX 6.1 under 'c
