Hi I am new to C++ programming and as my second personal project
I am looking to create a program that will index my PDF,CHM,TXT,and WRD files located
on my network drive at home. I would like to replicate window's search feature where
you can search for a word or phrase within a document.

Can someone help me with this or point me to the right direction, I would appreciate it.

Thanks

Why socket programming for indexing of files on a network drive?..
Better search inet on this topic. I think it's a project for some years of hard work...
Good luck!
