You could use Automation, but that is not recommended in server-side code:

You can use ADO to read Excel files. I don't have an example of this, but
Google should get you at least a few examples.

I don't have an alternative solution for Word. Maybe somebody else does.

Depends on what exactly the searching is. If you want complete programmatic
control with access to internal object hierarchies you can use MS Word and
Excel object libraries, but that will definetely take some progrmming time
and most likely will be achieved by creating you custom ActiveX DLL.
