Default Retrieve document variable from attached Word document

Hallo,

I receive mails with attached Word documents which been "given" a document
variable. This variable contains the full path name of the original file. I
want to grab this variable, change it to the full path name of an (existing)
directory and save it. I want to do this from Outlook using an Inspector.
Can this be done without miles of code opening and closing Word in the
background?

Thanks in advance,

Gordon Filby
