I've managed to use docx files in text edit. The formatting can get a
bit lost sometimes, but other than that it works quite well.

If you are only requiring to read the document, you can just hit the
space bar and it will open in preview. VoiceOver will then read this
document to you. TextEdit lets you edit RTF Word Documents. For
Office 2007 and 2010 docx files you will need Pages. A new OS is due
in the summer, who knows maybe this OS will offer even more built in
support.
I think Bean the open source free Word Processor also supports MS
Word, and there is also Nisus Writer Pro.

Hi,
Text edit (comes witht eh mac), pages, open office, and pretty much
any of the other editors will open and save in word format. I use a
macbook for school and use word files constantly.

Well, I’ve got an awful lot of documents in word format, and it
would be very time consuming to convert them from word to pages. So
is there a app that will allow me to read word documents with voice
over, or do I have to bite the bullet and just run windows on my mac?
