OT Microsoft Word to iPad
 
I want to put a word processor on my iPad and create documents that can be
read by MS Word on a PC and vice versa.

Can this be done and if so how?

As you ask nothing about cost, I'll not answer.

Citrix QuickEdit looks competent, and free.

No experience of it, though.

I was going to suggest that (I'm a fan) but it seems fairly limited at
present. It doesn't appear to edit, only read.

I went with this one, thanks.
Tried it both ways iPad-PC with a test message and it works fine.

It will be for her indoors who was complaining that her ipad can't take a
USB stick for transfering files. Her solution was to buy a Mac Air laptop.
Hopefully that idea has been knocked on the head.
