This will be very tricky if you are using the old style Word documents. The new Word documents are saved in a some sort of Zip archive and therefore are much easier to edit.

You can extract this files and with some knowledge of the contents and Word WSDL you can edit the contents of the file.

Much easier is to make use of the PHPDocX Library. We are using it in a project and works like a charm. Only disadvantage is that it only works with .docx files.
