Program search + replacement in .doc

If I am provided with a .doc file with special tags in it, for example, [first_name], how can I replace all occurrences of it with something like "Clark"? A simple binary replacement only works if the replacement string is the same length.

Haskell, C and C ++ answers would be better, but any compiled language could do. I would also prefer to do this without an external library, as it needs to be deployed on Windows and Linux, and cross-platform dependency handling is a bitch.

Summarizing...

With that said, as other posters noted, you still have to deal with eccentricities in the .doc format.
