searching text in MS Word
Hi. For my master thesis at university, I need to code the search engine for e-learning and it should do also fulltext search in Word documents. Can you, please, somebody help me and write how to do it (if it is possible), or write that it is impossible? Thanks a lot

use phpdig to index doc, xls, pdf etc
You can use the phpDig to index many documents like pdf, doc, xls etc and later on it search the indexed documents using MySQL Full text. It's an open source project.
You can get the current stable version from this link :
Hope this might help you in some extent.
