This issue still haunts the productivity of the office of Portland's largest employer.

On the iPad/iPhone, there is no native way to open different types of files from emailed appointments, except for pdfs.

If anyone knows what I mean, what is your workaround?

    Can they be opened in Google Docs on the iPhone?

    That is a great call that would solve my practical dilemma.

    Part of the scenario is... the people I work with could not imagine such a scheme.
    An app would need to do it automatically.


    Thank You to all with a solution

    The Pages app will open .doc and .xls files, I think.

    Thanks for the suggestion--I think Pages used to open both. doc and .xls, but now they have "Numbers" for .xls. The economy, you know...

    For the record.... it turns out that the real problem is that the iOS doesn't let you "park" documents in appointments the same way as with Outlook.
