You can use catdoc programm as converter .doc, .xls, .rtf to txt


In the contrib section of the http://EMacro.sf.net project, there is
elisp code to call catdoc.

There was such little interest in importing Word documents, that I
pulled out the code. Frankly, you'll get better results by launching Abiword or Open Office, then exporting, unless you run console mode, 
only, on your incompatible box.
