The Word example follows pretty much the same script as the Excel example. The only difference is that
instead of writing in cells, we have to insert the strings into the text "range" of our document and move
the cursor forward after each write. We also have to manually provide the line termination characters of
carriage RETURN following by NEWLINE (\r\n).
If we run this script, a resulting screen might look like Figure 23-2.
