[AccessD] Access 2007 Application - Running Under Win-764-Bitwith Office 2010 32-bit

David,

Thanks for the info.

I have not been in the position of purchasing company hardware and software before.

I have been asked to help with this in the next couple days so that the purchases can be in 2013 for tax purposes.

It looks like we may buy Dell PCs with Win-7 Pro 64-bit.

We will probably purchase Office 2010 from another source.

When I look at Office 2010 on other websites, I have not seen the option to specify 32-bit or 64-bit when ordering Office 2010.

This is really dumb, but I don't understand how force Office 2010 to be 32-bit.

Is this specified in the install process?

Does it matter that we are installing Office 2010 on a Win-7 64 bit PC?

If anyone can shed light on these questions, I would be most grateful.

Thanks,
Brad

We're using Win 7 64-bit with Office 2010 32-bit.  I work for a university
and we do bulk licensing with MS and it provides lots of options.  We opted
for the 32-bit version of Office as the 64-bit version was less robust and
had some issues.

David,

Thanks for the help.

I spent some time on Dell's website and on an online Chat with a Dell rep.

It sounds like we cannot get Office 32-bit pre-installed by Dell.

We may need to purchase Office 2010 32-bit from another source and install
it ourselves.

As long as it was written in an Office 32-bit version, it should run just
fine in a Windows 64-bit environment.  We do it every day.

All,

We are considering the replacement of several PCs in the near future.

I have built an Access 2007 application that may need to run under Windows-7
64 Bit with Office 2010 32-bit.

It is my understanding that this should work Okay.

Is this correct?

Thanks,
Brad
