I don't think you can. To be honest Word doesn't generate very good
html. Why don't you use a free html editor like Kompozer? Am I allowed
to suggest that here?
 
Hi LED,

Word 2007 no longer includes the MS Script Editor linkage to edit HTML through the User interface. You can turn on the
[ ] Confirm file format conversions at open in
Office Button=>Word Options=>Advanced=>General
and then use Office Button=>Open
to open the .HTM file and choose 'plain text' as the file type, but as Marsoupeal mentions in his reply, you may find another HTML
editor be more helpful, including using the MS Script editor as a standalone.
