Default Finding unique words

Hi all,
Does anyone know if it's possible to make a list of all the unique words in
a document without having to destroy all the punctuation and formatting
first? I know you can make a concordance index, but you have to know all the
words first for that. I'm an amateur Java programmer, so if you know Java,
you know that we can use StringTokenizers and HashSets to do this for small
strings, but is there a way to do that on a larger scale for a Word file (I
know it's a different programming language too, the Java was just an example)
that's a few hundred pages long?
Thanks!
