Hi, I'm new to both iPad 2 & the forum.
I tried opening the attachment in Evernote, but it keeps crashing, any suggestions?

Welcome to the forum.

I use Pages. I've never had a problem opening, reading and sending Word docs using this app.

Hi there and welcome.

If you only want to view, you can use the Office To PDF app, it creates a PDF file from any office doc and then you can view in a multitude of apps.

There is lots of good advice and info on here plus plenty of members all too willing to help with any problems.

GoodReader should be able to view them, if they are not too exotic.

However you will need an app like Pages, Documents 2 Go, or another to edit them. Here are a couple of reviews by forum members thta cover the most popular Office compatible apps.
