Purely personal reaction:

1) Not everyone has Word, or a Word reader, installed.

2) Not everyone trusts that Word's support for VB "and stuff" is actually
secure, even in the Word Reader.

BOTH are massive overkill for "a simple list" -- too powerful, too large,
too much infrastructure required. Whenever possible, stick with plaintext.
