[AccessD] Access 32-64 bit question

[dw-murphy at cox.net]

Not sure why you would install 2007. Just uninstall the 64 bit Office and
then select 32 bit when you reinstall Office 365. I had to do this when I
started using 365 as I didn't realize it defaults to the 64 bit version.

I was praying for a better solution, but oh Well. So I uninstall Office 365
and then reinstall Office 2007 and then reinstall Office 365, which, seeing
the previous installation, will install the 32-bit version.. There goes
another entire days's work. Such is life.
