Word Document Viewer not for e-mail attachments

jpnelson35 · #1 10-30-2007 -

Does anybody know of a BB program (or .jar) i can download (free) where i can view microsoft word documents or excel documents on my pearl?

I know there are a lot of programs that allow you to view the word doc attachments in e-mails, but i'm looking for something where i can load a doc onto my MicroSD card and then open it on my BB.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

yeah I tried beamberry. I cant exactly open up the program though.
Does it actually open up?
When i click on the icon in the menu, i doesnt do anything.
But then when i open "alt-back", i can see the beamberry running in the background.
I still cant open my docs.

Anything else? Thanks though

Not sure about DOC files, but you can at least look at XLS files attachments using BB's email client.

Gosh, that seems like an unnecessary response. It would have been much better, I think, to just say thank you. Especially when this question has been asked before.

Lets just chalk it up to premature Halloween anxiety.

i didnt mean to be rude... at all. I apologize if it came out that way.

Where else has this question been asked?
Is there a link?
I have been searching for days, but cant seem to find anything.

I think we are just out of luck for now. I've been wanting to do the same thing (actually, I would like to edit the documents in addition to reading them) since I switched from an MDA but have been unable to find anything other than eOffice which is just a little too pricey for me. I've seen a number of people that are waiting for the Blackberry version of Documents to Go and I did sign up for notification when it is developed, but not really much of anything else. Someone suggested using Mobipocket which I downloaded but have not tried yet. I guess we just keep searching. Good luck!
