You need to first add the document and then paste the clipboard contents:

oWord.Documents.Add()
oWord.ActiveDocument.Range.Paste

This will paste to where the cursor is located, in this case at the beginning of the document. You can also supply parameters to the Range object to paste into a different portion of the doc. The info for the word object model is at your office ..\Office\vbawrd8.hlp for Word97 and in ..\Office\1033\ for Word 2000 (don't have the file name handy).
