Hi Tom, As a general rule, I've found it better to save these files as RTF, thereby preserving much of the format while allowing PK to open them correctly. If you transfer your files from a PC to the PK via Activestink, you can tell Activesync to convert Word files to RTF automatically as it copies them over to a mobile device.

I'd been wondering about that given recent problems I'd had with documents containing tables. I'll need to see about some sort of work-around for this, changing the tables to straight text with tab stops or something that doesn't require a special converter. It would be nice to have truly transparent handling of Word files and I hope that happens sooner rather than later.
