there is, but these days you need a proxy......Must be a fairly recent thing then, its been a few years since I moved jobs. I still wouldn't fork out for MS Office though, I'd just export from LibreOffice and send docx and pdf together saying I can't guarentee that their version of office will render it correctly and that they should use pdf for viewing or printing.
For anything needing VBA you have to have MS Office on windows, I don't believe you can used VBA in the Mac version either, so no way around the MS tax then I'm afraid

If you have something like a complicated Word document with, say, multiple outline numbering schemes, cross references, multiple sections etc you may well find *something* won't transfer across properly.
For more straightforward stuff I understand it's usually fine in either direction.0
