I edit exclusively in MSWord for the same reason as the OP, and then I save as RTF - I get the exact results I want this way, the epub and RTF are almost identical.

I import the original file whatever the format to Calibre and convert to RTF from there. Occasionally the resultant file wont open in MSWord. But I found it will open in Wordpad. A quick save again and then MSWord will work.

I also notice that despite having the setting to Remove spacing between para's ticked and have 0.0em indent, the RTF file always has an indent with a 'tab' - however easily removed as part of my macros.
