Default Seach ''WORD'' in multiple doc/docx files (different folders!) at the same time

Hi,

Although my question might be more Windows based than MS Office Word based, I still decided to post this message on your forum because surely other members already had such inquiry.

Lets say in particular main folder, I have multiple subfolders, subsubfolders, subsubsubfolders, etc. In the main folder are located MS Office Word files in different extensions (e.g. doc, docx) in different subfolders/subsubfolders/subsubsubfolders so NOT all Word files are in one second/third hierarchy folder. Those Word files can be few thousands or few tens of thousands, or even just few houndreds.

I am searching for a way how could I find particular word (e.g. ''water'') or particular phrase (e.g. ''old book'') or even entire sentence? So that automated tool I am asking for would show me ALL, without an exception, Word files containing particular keyword(s).

Thank you in advance!
