Searching in iptc tags

[SOLE2000]

I'm importing a series of JPG files into my coppermine galleries, and all of them have iptc tags.  I've set the advanced functions to read the information, however the search function does not search these keywords when conducting a search.  Is there a way to:

1. set the program to read these tags and display relevant results when searching?
2. batch convert the keywords in the iptc tags into coppermine tags for each file?

I was able to solve... turns out my first galleries created was before I applied the iptc setting, so I have to add the pictures to the database after this setting has been turned on.
