Mimic OLE or TEXT_IO in Oracle Web_enabled Forms

We have an application currently running Oracle Forms 6i. On the Client-Server application we use TEXT_IO and its procedures and functions to output data (from the screens and dB) to MSWord.  This .DOC can then be edited and printed and sent to the appropriate person.

We need the same functionality for web-enabled FORMS.
Research tells me Java Bean(s), but I don't know how to implement it.

Front-end: Oracle 6i Web-enabled Forms.
Middle Tier: Oracle 9iAS on Windows 2000 Server platform
Db Tier:Oracle 8i on Unix

using javabean and a COM-bridge (like http://danadler.com/jacob/ ) you can do it

metalink note 175178.1 describes an example (with source) on how to do it.
