I have solved it - thank you Google. This is probably something that you all know, but not for me the noob: simply use Safari (and not Chrome as I was doing), download the Word file, and the share link will bring up Word as one of the sendto options.
It won't let me export it to Word. It will let me share to Message, Mail, Reminders, Outlook, etc but neither Word or Pages is there, even under the "More" section.
Hi, I am new to forums and the ipad. I know how to open a Word document emailed to me in either Pages or Word. How do you open a downloaded Word document to edit it? I can open the document but can't see any way to share it with Pages or Word to edit it?? Help.
