Have you tried strings? Always used to do the trick before the MS format changed.
docx is just a bunch of zipped XML files and some misc files. strings will fail due to ZIP, but once unpacked, strings will happily dig through the XML files.

I just did not think about it. That's a very good idea, I'll try it. I don't know how it works under the hood, but I know that the Linux grep command is able to find strings in a MS word file, so, if it works similarly, the Linux string command might be all I need.
Thanks hippo.
