SPUG: a word 97/98 module

[Rick Brannan]

Matthew --

Win32::OLE is the module you're looking for, I think. It is packaged with
ActiveState's distribution. It allows access to Word's document object,
among other things. I know there are several folks who are quite acquainted
with using Perl to get at word docs through Win32::OLE on ActiveState's
perl-win32-users list. You might want to query that list for further
information and tips on how to exactly go about it.
