From within your own program or in MS word? If you need to do it from within your program, does this feature need to work even if MS word isn't installed. Is there any reason you can't just use a compressed RTF and then just decompress it in memory and use a RichTextBox?

Look into this and adjust it to your needs.
It's not ideal at all though.
