Have tried using "company-dabbrev-code" to try to complete words from opened buffurs.
(setq company-backends '(company-dabbrev-code))
For instance, in texinfo-mode I have the following code
Report for research project entitled: "Ambient Geotomography within the Central
Mediterranean Sea.".
Then I try to complete the word "Mediterranean" by starting to type "Medi" but the completion
does not activate.

Try this instead:
(setq company-backends '(company-dabbrev-code company-dabbrev))
This will use the "code" backend for "code" buffers, and the other for
the rest.

It works well, thank you. Is it possible to make "company" complete words that exist in
comments.
As example, consider emacs-lisp
;;; * Heading Inhibit Emacs Startup Windows
(defvar startup-windows 0)
(defvar detail "Startup windows provide information about
copyleft and basic emacs usage.")
I start writing "Sta", but because "Startup" is in a comment, the word is not expanded.
