This issue occurs because the 2007 Office iFilters are not included in SharePoint Portal Server 2003. Therefore, the following 2007 Office file formats are not indexed by SharePoint Portal Server 2003:

•	.docx
•	.docm
•	.pptx
•	.pptm
•	.xlsx
•	.xlsm

To resolve this issue, install a 2007 Office program, such as Microsoft Office Word 2007, on the computer that is running SharePoint Portal Server. By default, this procedure also installs the 2007 Office iFilters. To do this, follow these steps:

1.	Install Word 2007 on the computer that is running SharePoint Portal Server.
2.	Click Start, point to Administrative Tools, and then click SharePoint Central Administration.
3.	On the SharePoint Portal Server Site Settings page, click Configure search and indexing in the Search Settings and Indexed Content section.
4.	On the Configure Search and Indexing page, click Include file types in the General Content Settings and Indexing Status section.
5.	On the Specify File Types to Include page, click New File Type.
6.	On the Add File Type page, type the file name extension for the file type that you want to add in the File extension box. The 2007 Office system uses the following file name extensions: • .docx • .docm • .pptx • .pptm • .xlsx • .xlsm
7.	Click OK.
