I have scavenged the internet for a solution to this problem, including this forum, and no one really has a fix for it. My mac never had a problem indexing the inside of .ppt files but ever since I converted them all to .pptx files, since they save so much space on those 20+ MB PPT files that people love to make, I have lost all searching ability with them. This makes it hard when you have 30+ PPT's for a class to search through. Has anyone else run into this problem and found a solution?

Thanks,

Danny
