Hi ?B?R2lubnk=?=,

Does anyone know whether entering keywords from a document under Properties /
Summary has an effect in online searches? Specifically, if the document is
online, will the presence of keywords make the document more likely to be
listed higher when someone does a Google or other search?

Probably not, unless the engines that compile these things have started checking
file properties. But as far as I know, they only search the meta-information of
the HTML files that make up the actual websites.
