Question about DOCX and open office

[Mord Behar]

A docx file is a gzipped collection of folders and xml files. If you're
feeling adventurous you can try to extract the address information directly
from there...

since open office can read docx files, it should be possible convert them
to ascii text.

once you have done that, you scan for an address.

it will be easier imho to look for the end of the address, e.g. Israel or
<zip code > <city> or the other way around and work your way up.

you just have to be careful to keep the original file name in the address
list to keep them in sync.
