Word 2002 and 2003 can give you the ascii value for a single character if
you select it and press Alt+X. I'm using 2000 at the moment so can't check
and I seem to recall that it didn't always work exactly as I expected, but
try it and see for yourself.

I thought Word had a feature to show the actual hex values in a document,
but
now I can't seem to remember how to change to that view. I have some
files
that were ftp'd from a client and I need to track down why the file
contents
are getting mangled.
