You can create OpenXML documents using the Open XML SDK 2.0 for Microsoft Office. Note that this only applies to .docx, not .doc binary files from earlier versions of Word.

Documentation can be found here.

And you can augment that with docx4j.NET for stuff which isn't easy out of the box with the SDK, such as mail merge, XHTML import, PDF export. – JasonPlutext Mar 23 '14 at 21:51
