The creator will accept either .doc MS Word files or HTML and creat a .PRC unDRMed file that should be readable on the Kindle. (Note: I don't have a Kindle but do this for my Palm T/X routinely.)
BTW, didn't mean to steal Harry's thunder. Just had some info to share.
Thanks, slayda! I may PM you with a few more specific questions (for example, the whole DRM .prc PID is like Greek to me! DRM I get, the others are new to me!

Would I need both the reader and the creator? Or if I'm just using it to format Word or text (or HTML, I suppose) files, I would only need the creator?
