.NET/IIS search for documents

I want to create a search engine to search through an IIS server and a
Windows 2000 file server. I want to return results for files of
certain types (DOC, PDF, XLS). I want to return their document
properties (Title, subject, description) if possible. I do not need to
return HTML results.

How do I do this? With .NET? With something like Index Server? I am
new to IIS 6.0. I have worked with 4.0. I know the VB.net language
well.

Specs: Windows 2003 Server w/ IIS 6.0

Thank you

I'm just about to start a project that needs to combine the results of a SQL Server query with the results of an Index Server query. The basic idea is that the user enters/selects a bunch of search criteria on a form. Most of the criteria selected by the user will be used to select records from the database - standard WHERE clause stuff - but...
