Default Software of scripting to grab data from MS word file and fill inExcel fields?

I've seen lots of people ask how to use Excel as a database to populate a word
document (mailmerge from within MSWord). But I haven't seen your question much
(if ever).

You may want to post in the MSWord newsgroup if you don't get a real good
solution here.

I would like to find a software package or scripting tool that will
allow me to automate the process of grabbing #s from the ms word file
and filling in fields in an excel file. I have a feel that there may
be quite of programming involved in doing this. But perhaps there are
some more efficient solutions out there. I would appreciate any
advice. Thanks
