I just checked...Copernic will read Word and other
Microsoft files, even PDF files, but not OpenOffice
files.  But this isn't more work for YOU to do.

All you have to do is tell Copernic how to proceed.
Leverage your efforts, make them work with you, and
you'll get more functionality at next-to-no-cost.

Just tell them how many people use OpenOffice now.
They'll be eager to gain that piece of market share.

If you add the OpenOffice extensions to Copernic's list, they will be successfully indexed. However, the Copernic viewer will refuse to view them. You can open the files once found, however.


A better solution is Yahoo Desktop Search, which I'm trying at the moment. It, too will index OpenOffice files if you add the extensions. And even though there is not an OpenOffice viewer yet (it certainly views a lot more file types than Copernic or the others), it will give a text-only (unformatted) view of OpenOffice documents.

I find it very useful!
