Word files are in a proprietary format. Your best bet is to open it in word and save it to HTML from there... If you need to do this to many files perhaps word can be scripted on your platform?

Comment on Re: Convert word(.doc) file to html file
Word will convert .doc files to HTML easily but there's a drawback.
Word has a tendency to throw a lot of junk into HTML files--I've seen webpages at my workplace that specifically request that nobody use Word to edit them because the author doesn't want to deal with the messes Word makes.
