I just solved the problem and it can be done (thankfully).

I wrote up in another post the exact sequence, but, the trick is
to open the Word document in Safari from the Gmail app:
 http://i57.tinypic.com/24c5jye.png

9 out of 12 times that fails because both Chrome and Safari don't
open the document (I'm not sure yet why) but, instead, they request
you log into your Gmail account (which you never need to do):
 Chrome: http://i60.tinypic.com/2airh1j.png
 Safari: http://i59.tinypic.com/15q55ir.png

However, 3 out of 12 times, the document actually opens up in Safari:
 http://i58.tinypic.com/2vaf37k.png

Once the Word document opens in Safari, a press on the white space
of the document brings up the Share to Word (or Share to Pages) menu.

I knew we'd figure out a way (we always do); so I thank you for
all your help!
