After calling 'SearchExecuteQueryEx' function, is there an API to access the content of the 'Search' window list ?

The docs say, very specifically, no.

"You can do the following with either version of the Search plug-in:

  • Create or delete indexes.
  • Ask what indexes are available.
  • Send queries to an existing index.

You cannot use either version of the Search plug-in to directly obtain the results of a search, for manipulation or for display in an application other than Adobe Acrobat."
