Hiya Paul!

One of the chaps at work champions Google Desktop to do searches. If you=20
scan your documents into a pdf file, there's a Google desktop plugin=20
that will OCR the pdf's and make them searchable too (from what I can=20
remember - it will ocr other image formats as well).

HYPERLINK "http://desktop.google.com/"http://desktop.-google.com/
HYPERLINK "http://desktop.google.com/plugins/i/omnipagesearch.html?hl=3Den"=
http://desktop.-google.com/-plugins/i/-omnipagesearch.-html?hl=3Den

That may work :)
