You can either roll your own using the ActiveX interface or use the Report Generation Toolkit.

What do you mean by read? A Word document is a complex object, consisting of all sorts of things like styles and objects. Do you have a Word document that is just text? If so, why not just save it as text? What if it has pictures?
