You really should read up on the the difference between
system("command params") and system("command", @params) in the docs.
Also a thing nice to notice is what system( 1, "command"...) means.
Anyway try:
system( 1, $filename_winword,"/n", "docs/$result->{DOCUMENT_NAME}");
Or you may try to install the latest Win32::FileOp and use
ShellExecute("docs/$result->{DOCUMENT_NAME}");
