DWG viewer that can highlight words

Hi all,

We're looking into the ability of handling AutoCAD files by our
application. Handling includes searching inside the files and
highlighting the found words, so the user can identify them easily
inside the file. The former was easily achieved using IFilters. The
later, however, is a much bigger problem. We need a viewer that can
receive the words, with or without a position, and highlight them. The
viewer can be an OCX or a standalone application, as long as there's a
way to pass it the list of words that should be highlighted.

Does anyone know such a viewer?

Thanks,
Kal
