I have emails containing attachments of other emails and attachments of word
or excel documents. Is there a way to searh the content in the attachments
for a specific word or phrase? These emails involve funding for a handicapped
individual and problems with the bureaucracy. There are hundreds of them.

If not. Could I create a macro (don't know anything about them) to find all
attachments with the word "respite" in them or "planning" in them?

Thanks

No, it doesn't search attachment content.

When I do a search in outlook 2003, does the search also check the
contents
of my attachments?

Just want to know if I have to search the attachment content some other
way.

Thanks
