I use Template Mapper for jobs like these. Template Mapper was developed by Chris Despopoulos http://www.telecable.es/personales/cud.
It goes like this: 1. Open the Word file in FrameMaker (that's right, just open, not import). 2. Using Template Mapper, map the Word styles to the FrameMaker Formats of your template. This is really nice because you cannot only map Paragraph Formats, but also Character Formats, Table Formats, Cross-reference Formats and Condition Tags. And you have a nice mapping table in which you can simply select the FrameMaker Formats to which the Word styles should be mapped, so you can't make mistakes here. 3. Use these "mapping tables" in a "Job Control Panel" to apply this mapping to complete FrameMaker books. What's also nice thing about this, is that you get "clean" FrameMaker files: the list of Paragraph Formats will only contain the paratags of your FrameMaker template, not the Word styles (Normal, Heading 1, Heading 2, ...).
