This, you are going to have to find out. Retrieving the information  from
the DOC file will require an intimate knowledge of how the document is
formatted, and what differences (if any) there are between the various
documents.

You either need to talk to the people who set it up in the first place, or
else you'll need to turn on all view options you can find and work out how
the document hangs together. (Actually, you'll need to do the latter
anyway.)

If the information is in a table, it will be retrieved differently to (and
probably more easily than) information in the main text of the DOC file.

However, both can be done, without too much difficulty. You just need to
specify the exact actions needed to locate and select the information you
need to retrieve. From Excel, you will be able to search for and select
text using the same sorts of actions you can use from the keyboard directly
into Word.

Once you know exactly what you need to do in Word, ask here again. I'm sure
there are people who have done something similar. (I haven't moved text in
this direction, but I have gone from excel  to Word on many occasions and
have some understanding of how to grab things out of Word.)
