[AccessD] Converting to 64 Bit

[Stuart McLachlan]

32bit Office is not going away any time soon.  That said:

Is your application really a .mdb?

If so, it's more important to convert it to accdb rather than worry about 32/64 bit at this 
stage.

Is "your Access mdb" just for your own use? DO you have control over the machines it is 
run on?

The default Office installation in now 64bit and consequently any new machine is likely to 
have 64bit Office - so even though 32bit is still going to be around for quite a while, having 
your Access appl;ication 64bit compatible makes  a lot of sense.
