Don't do this! -- especially if your field is maths, physics, computer 
science or engineering (I wrote my dissertation in Word 1 back in 1986 
using a precursor of MathType. Things have improved since then but Word 
is still a terrible typesetting program). Use TeX or Mathematica instead.

There are -- but this is not a good way to proceed.
