Can anyone help?

Hi Sean,

sorry for the ugly news, but the HWPF library is too incomplete to do this.
Using RTF - as Angelo Zerr mentioned - looks like an easier solution (based
on the assumption that you can live with RTF).

Another possibility is to use one of the newer Word formats. Ever since 2003, it has been possible to use an XML-based format, which is a lot easier to modify from external tools.
