I would probably do something like this:
1. start up KMail and go to the message that has the attachment
2. open up a Konsole window
3. Either:
        a.) save the attachment into your home directory ; or
        b.) find out the path to the attachment
        (something like /home/you/kmailbox/message1.word.doc, i'm not
        sure how KMail stores its files)
4. in the Konsole window, give the command 
        strings /path/to/word.doc | less
