Re: iFS: Supported File-Types

Hi Christian,

maybe on otn (technet.oracle.com)
I know iFS indexes:

- all known M$Office document formats (word, excel, powerpoint, works)
- PDF
- "plain ascii" formats such as textfiles, html, rtf

iFS does not index StarOffice files :-(

There's a view telling which file formats iFS "knows", but I don't think that it can't index all those files - at least not the images:

SELECT mimetype, extension, name
FROM odmv_format;

...gives you a list of 32 entries:
