Please let me know where to find the tool. It is something like excel2html or xl2html or something and I can't remember anything about the Word tool.

For converting Word attachments to plain text, I use wvHtml (http://www.wvWare.com/) piped to w3m (http://ei5nazha.yz.yamagata-u.ac.jp/~aito/w3m/eng/). Mswordview is now wvWare. For Excel attachments, I use xlHtml (http://www.xlhtml.org/) piped to w3m. The scripts I use to hook these together are available from my web site.
