Not an indexer necessarily. There is the "code explorer". In the default docking of TestComplete, it's one of the bottom tabs in the left side.
This lists out all the units and the functions within those units on a per project basis within your project suite. Other than that, the best way to find something specific in your code base is your standard ALT-F Find function.
This is a serious short coming. Can I request this feature?

Feature requests are certainly not a bad thing... feel free to make one at https://community.smartbear.com/t5/TestComplete-Feature-Requests/idb-p/TestXCompleteFeatureRequests and then campaign for up votes. I'll vote up. :)

BTW, TestComplete DOES support building extensions other than just script extensions. Design time actions can be written as Script Extensions as well. So, say you were to grab an open source code search tool (like... oh... https://github.com/google/codesearch) and adapt it to TestComplete's extensible architecture.... you could potentially build your own script extension with a design time action to do pretty much exactly what you want.
Just saying. ;)

One more note on this... all the code written in script in TestComplete is in plain text files (.sj, .vbs, .pas, etc). If you're using a standard code repository/source control program like TFS, Mercurial, Git, etc., all those programs include "grep"-like functionality for doing code searches. While TC may not have it incorporated into it, there are certainly options for doing code search using any number of free and/or open source tools as well as COTS tools.
