You're not. Indeed, it is possible to achieve this task using converters: catdoc for MS-Word format and the other, xls2csv for MS-Excel format.
There seems to be a new version of mswordview at http://www.wvware.com It also has an online check section which read my word file correctly. I thought while downloading the library should also give an update on the conversion utilities.
