Better still.
Drag the MS Word document onto the Pages icon in the dock. Hey
presto!. The Word document usually open formatting intact in Pages.
Some times the formatting is better as I experienced today. Some
times the formatting has to be redone a little. Some times Pages will
not accept et formatting but this is very uncommon.
And once the document is in Pages, much better to then edit etc.
I'm progressively converting all Word document to Pages. Have not
upgrades to Office for Mac 2009.
I would expect that Microsoft at some stage will not continue to
support Office for Mac as iWork is getting better and better.
I'm a believer!

Hi John,
The usual way would be just to open the .doc word file in pages and
then
save as in the native pages format.
Cheers
Neil
