Searching attachments

Document attachments can be searched too. They are searched using the original SQL search. You need to have your SQL server configured properly as described in this topic in order for attachments search to be functional.

If you have the SQL server configured, you need to enable attachments search by the following properties of Smart search dialog with results or Smart search results web part:

Property Name	Description
Search in attachments	If enabled, document attachments will be searched.
WHERE condition	WHERE condition specifying documents whose attachments will be searched.
ORDER BY expression	ORDER BY expression ordering documents. The attachments will be displayed according to this order in the search results.

The results are interlaced with regular search results, which is by design and can not be modified.
