Office Index Filter Cannot Index Password-Protected Documents
This article was previously published under Q306339
A Microsoft Office Index Filter is included in SharePoint Portal Server, Site Server and in versions of Indexing Services in Windows 2000 and Windows NT Server. This Office Index Filter cannot open and index Office documents that are password-protected with the Protection feature in Office programs.
This is by design.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Windows 2000 Server
- Microsoft Site Server 3.0 Standard Edition
- Microsoft SharePoint Portal Server 2001
- Microsoft Windows NT Server 4.0 Standard Edition
Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
