Word files are not made up of text, they contain different types of objects,
so you'll need to open the documents and strip the text from them which is
not an easy task from asp.net. That said, its do-able and this link will
get you started in understanding how to automate it from .net.

You'd be better of getting a product like activePDF though which can convert
between document types though.
