Microsoft Word 'Search' function won't work
Since installing the Microsoft compatibility pack (to allow Vista Office
documents to be read) the Search facility in Word fails to find any texts. Even copying and pasting a word from the document into the search pane fails to work. I'm running Office 2003 (11.8227.8221) SP3 on a Dell Precision T7400 running Win XP Pro SP3. Can anyone shed light on a cure for the failing Search function? Regards, Doug. |

Microsoft Word 'Search' function won't work
There are no 'Vista' office documents. Word 2007 'documents' are not
documents but zip files containing XLM files. The Office search tool predates Word 2007 and cannot read this format. The search tool should still work with Word 97-2003 format. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Doug. wrote: Since installing the Microsoft compatibility pack (to allow Vista Office documents to be read) the Search facility in Word fails to find any texts.
