Dear Mr_Noodle,

I seem to have problems using Hazel's "contents" "contains matches" function to search the headers (and I presume footers) in .docx files. I do not have the same problem with .doc files.

I use Hazel to search out a string of text which is the reference number for the document in the header so this function is quite important for me. I would appreciate it if you could let me know what I'm doing wrong.

Thank you.

Warm regards,
Michael

Note that .docx are compressed (in zip format actually). I'm guessing that it isn't a supported text type that Hazel can read. You may need to look into a script to either (a) somehow grab the info you want out of the file) or (b) convert the file into a doc file.
