AccessCrawler
This is the new home of AccessCrawler: a free tool to index mdb files so you that you can search the content via the excellent tool that is Google Desktop Search.
AccessCrawler is easy to use: just download, run the setup and that’s it! Google Desktop and AccessCrawler work together to index all the mdb files that you configure Google Desktop to index.
A couple of notes: indexing databases is very resource intensive so AccessCrawler only indexes the first 1,000 records of each database. And no, AccessCrawler has no spyware/adware/viruses. I provide it free simply because I believe it is a useful tool that fills in a needed feature for what is otherwise an excellent desktop search tool.
Is there the potential to only index specific tables. Or to direct the plugin to only index databases in a specific path.
I only need references to 2 tables per database in a collection of a few hundred databases. These are two of the smaller tables in these databases so I would like to not have the overhead of all of the additional data.
Thanks.
