Win32::OLE is an API to access OLE/COM Servers. Word is an OLE Server and it has an Object Model defined in it's documents or in the macro suite as mentioned in Re: Where is the Win32::OLE Docs. The properties/methods and the types of arguments to pass to them are defined in the Object Model. Grab a copy of Win32 Perl Programming: The Standard Extensions (2nd Edition) for a gentle introduction to OLE Automation. It's old but still valid. It will not help you to write MSWord controllers but will help you to understand how it works and summarizes the core concepts.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
