Cameron,

I downloaded the already compiled Windows version of antiword and
incorporated the patches that Yuriy suggested.  But when I try to index my
files, I get the following errors.  It cannot execute antiword.exe :

Any help you or anyone else can give me would be greatly appreciated.

Davone,
Forget catdoc.  Get antiword.  It runs on many different platforms.  Use
the same patches that Yurly listed before, and it will work fine.
Antiword is at http://www.winfield.demon.nl/index.html.  Enjoy
