If I had a nickel for every time this question has been asked, I would
be rich beyond my wildest dreams.

The Word file format is a PROPRIETARY TRADE SECRET OF MICROSOFT!  It
has never been released to the public. You may be able to license it
for a fee from Microsoft, but you'd probably have to sign a
non-disclosure agreement. If anyone has reverse-engineered the file
format, it has never been leaked to the public. If someone did this,
they'd be asking MS to make an example of them in the courts. None of
MS's development information sources (Knowledge Base, MSDN CDs, etc)
documents the file format.

Of all the word processors, only WordPerfect has a developer's kit
with the file format documented in it, an optional extra you have
to pay for. I don't think they even still have it.

Use a "strings" program.
