    Not sure about the work you have already done... But you can buy an App called 'pages' which is Apples version of word.
    From 'Pages' you can send your work by email and tick to convert it to word.

    I used to do this all the time when working whilst travelling and then sending work to my PC.

    'Pages' takes a little bit of getting used to ...but there are a lot of help internet sites to assist.

    Good luck!

    I use Pages too, now that I am used to it I love it. You don't have to keep saving things like on word. You never lose work. It does take a bit of getting used to but once you have got the hang of it it's amazing. Xx

    Oh dear you must be getting really frustrated. I can't give you any advice I'm afraid, just sending virtual support x
    Perhaps look at it again tomorrow after a good nights sleep x

    Pages for iOS (iPad): Share documents by connecting to your computer

    This might help...using I cloud or accessing through your old computer ...you may need to ring and ask who you can send it to in the light of not being able to upload.

    How frustrating this technology must be!!!

    Can you not do an association to it and open with or open as and then save it in that format? Right click on the mouse on the file and you should get the option or

    Open you file, say save as and then under the file name open the next box and choose word from it.
