Anyone want to save me from having to google?

Is there an Ipad app that will edit MS Word documents without totally borking them?

If it can fix a couple of tricky past/present tense problems in my almost-finished story that would be a plus.

If it's not too long a document, DocsToGo will do the job. I don't think it does well with long docs, but it does deal with them in something resembling native Word format.

I've heard good things about Pages, but I believe that converts documents to its own format, then converts it back to Word. Which shouldn't be an issue if you're dealing with vanilla manuscript format, but might for something trickier.

Thanks! I'm giving Pages a try first, and if it doesn't see the highlights and note things in my doc I'll check out DocsToGo.
