Thank you so much. It works. But where can I find the APIs such as Dispatch vs
gencache.EnsureDispatch? Now, I have another problem. Using the auto save, all
auto-numbers before paragraphs are not read by the following code:
for word in doc.Content.Text.encode("cp1252", "replace").split():
print word
count += 1
print "total word: " , count
It works for the manual saved txt file.

If you use this instead:
app = win32com.client.gencache.EnsureDispatch('Word.Application')
then the framework will build a Python wrapper for objects of that type,
and that Python wrapper will create the constants.
You MUST get in the habit of using the proper escape characters. The
backslash has special meaning in Python strings. You have three choices:
1. Use a "raw" string:
apps.Documents.Open(r'D:\projects\Myself\HelloPython\src\Drugreservoir.doc')
2. Double the backslashes:
apps.Documents.Open('D:\\projects\\Myself\\HelloPython\\src\\Drugreservoir.doc')
3. Use forward slashes:
apps.Documents.Open('D:/projects/Myself/HelloPython/src/Drugreservoir.doc')
