Can I tag documents?Solved/Closed

Question

Hello,
Is there anyway to put tags on my word documents and pdf files in windows explorer so that i can find them easier?  There is a "Tag" column in explorer, but I can't figure out how to add tags to the documents.  I would also like to add authors, source, and year published to each document but I can't figure that out either.  If any of these are possible, any help would be greatly appreciated!

Those programs would probably solve my problems, but they are only for Mac.  Does anybody know of an answer for Vista?

If you have the full version of Adobe Acrobat (not the reader) you can go to File->properties and enter keywords (separated by ;) which will then show up as searchable tags in vista explorer.
