I was facing a similar issue and your code sample was just the thing I needed. For my system (Windows 10 -- Office 2016) I had to make Win32::OLE::Const more generic, and I added "close" and "quit" to close the document and end MS Word. Thank you poj for the sample code.

use Win32::OLE::Const "Microsoft Office .* Object Library";

# Close document
$Doc->Close();
undef $Doc;

# Close MS Word
$Word->Quit();
undef $Word;
