What is anyone using to edit word (PC) docs on their Ipad.
Can they easily be imported/exported to a PC

I use an App "docs to go"

With this you can mirror your My Document file on your pc. Or put any files that you want on it

This is what I do with my work laptop and then I have every file that is on my laptop on my Ipad

But I can also in this app do xl and word documents and import stuff that has been emailed into the iPad and place in the files. You can also email any file out of this app and save any changed any file
Then when I am near my laptop I can syncs all the files so that the files are the same in both the laptop and iPad

I use this app every day for work , for changing files emailing stuff and other work things


Cost about $5 but worth it

if i purchased an iPad my girlfriend would not be allowed to connect directly to her work PC, what options would there be to transfer files from PC to iPad?

You could always use google docs so its online & can be accessed from anywhere on any computer / tablet / smart phone

Just a thought

Hi
It does it over your Wi Fi and when commanded to by you on your pc
It does not lose any formatting, well not that I have noticed yet
