That's only a problem if he expects "others" (e.g., customers) to open
the Word document directly.  If, OTOH, he's using it to prepare something
for print *or* will ultimately be releasing a PDF (or other, "more portable"
file format -- so the file can be accessed from a wide variety of hosts),
then the lack of appropriate "object server" falls out of the equation.
