How can I past vector graphics from Illustrator into Word?

I need scaleable graphics in a document I'm designing, as rastor graphics turn to crap when you PDF them. Can illustrator create a vector file format that can enable the graphics produced to be copied into word files? Thanks in advance...|||Here is a thread on the subject:

If your raster graphics don't look good in PDF, you should check out the DPI setting when exporting to PDF. Perhaps it is too low so the images are being down-sampled.|||This will help.

Also, you will get the best result if you scale the image to as close as it needs to be used as even eps files in Word don't seem to retain the crisp lines you would expect them to compared to placing them in software such as QuarkXPress or InDesign.
