I know how to do this using MS Word's VBA, but I don't know how to

What you need is OpenOffice. The regular installation already includes
the Java classes, etc. to develop applications. There is an SDK but it
is only required for the fancier stuff.

http://development.openoffice.org/index.htmlhttp://www.oooforum.org/

The Eclipse plugin for OO needs some work (in fact, they may have
stopped working on it) so you are well advised to develop with
NetBeans because has an excellent OO plugin.

The SDK comes with several examples in the java/DocumentHandling
folder:

- DocumentConverter.java
- DocumentLoader.java
- DocumentPrinter.java
- DocumentSaver.java
