You can use Word if you like. But make sure you open the file as a text file (.txt) and also save it like that. Or else it might insert formatting code and treat is as it's native .doc or .docx format. Never do any changes in fonts, color or whatever. It won't save in a .txt file, or the game will consider it corrupt and go critical mass. The various extended options is something you DON'T want if you start editing game files.
Personally, Notepad has everything you need. It's tiny and opens quickly and has a nice and simply user interface. With the modern Windows versions it can even handle really large files.
