I want to get data out of word and put it in an asp page via labels,
textboxes, whatever. Every article I see puts data into word, not the other
way around. I have the Visual Studio Office Tools, can anyone point me to
the right article?

You can't use Office Automation in ASP.NET, because it doesn't work in that
environment:

By far the simplest solution will be to use Aspose:
