Take the contents of the Word document, and put it into a text area. When the user clicks save, at the server put the contents of the text area into the Word document through Automation.

If you want to have the ability to do real, complex formatting, it's going to be really, really hard!

You would be much better off if you can zero in on just exactly what part of the doc needs to be edited, and gather input from the user just on that aspect of the info.
