has anyone ever tried to get the (textual) content of an arbitrary format (e.g. *.docx, *.pptx, etc.)
via an (installed) iFilter under MS Windows? MS Office automatically installs the necessary iFilters
for the supported document types
query.dll contains the functions LoadIFilter / LoadIFilterEx functions but judging from:
it seems the whole thing can only be handled via COM (or in PB's case: COMate Plus)?; "pwcsPath" - Pointer to the full path of an object for which an IFilter Interface pointer is to be returned
; "pUnkOuter" - Pointer to the controlling IUnknown Interface of the aggregate in which this storage object exists
; "ppIUnk" - Pointer to an output variable that receives the IFilter Interface pointer
