I have configured Verity to search for *.doc and *.pdf files. 98% <a href="/demo/index.cfm?objectid=\\devBox\farcry\demo\www\files\FCAdmin_userguide2001.pdf">Microsoft Word - FCAdmin_userguide200.doc</a>
So two questions:
Why isnt the external file being opened?
Why is it showing the PDF as MS word?
Actually three questions, how do I make it work?


You need to add a check in your search results page to see if the key is a farcry object or external link.

Something like this should do the trick:

<!--- check for extFile or farcry object --->
<cfif left(key,2) eq "\\">
<a href="#application.url.webroot#/download.cfm?extFile=#key#">#qResults.title#</a>
<cfelse>
<!--- farcry object --->
<a href="#application.url.conjurer#?objectid=#key#">#qResults.title#</a>
</cfif>
