    If you mean "How do I open a document created with Mac Pages in a Microsoft environment", I don't believe that there is any software that will open a native-format ".pages" file - ask the author of the Pages file to save it in a format you can open, e.g. .rtf, or from Pages 08, Word .docx format, etc.

    Unfortunately it is not possible to open Mac office files directly in Microsoft office. You have to save the files in windows office file format and then try to open the files in windows office.
