How can I set a link to open the html page in Microsoft Word for editing?
 
You can't. And why would you? Word is not a HTML editor.

We want to do this simply because it would make it possible to edit our html
pages without the need of Front Page or other html editor. You can use the
"Edit in ...." feature of Microsoft Internet Explorer, but by simply adding a
parameter in the link to open the link in Microsoft Word you skip one step.

Word can be a HTML editor, we plan to use it for simple text editing.

I do not believe that this can't be done.

Set IE to use Word as the HTML editor, however it will only be opening a page within the web, and
not the web, so features that require the FP run-time extensions, may fail to function as a page has
been updated, etc.
