I need to convert Microsoft Office Word .doc files into the new format (.docx) of Office 2007. I need it to be done via the command line since it's an application where people upload .doc files, and I want them automatically to be converted to .docx.
I can live with a link to a downloadable .exe file if you can provide one, and C++ code will be even better.

If you want something like code, try the JODConverter Java library.
JODConverter automates all conversions supported by OpenOffice.org, including .doc and .docx files.
I used the library, and it does a good job.
