No. There is no need for Office to be 64bit. 32bit software runs natively

on Windows 64bit operating systems so there is no need for the additional

expense to MS of a 64bit version of Office 2007. Why do you feel there

should be one?

I'm using Office 2007 on Vista Ultimate x64 right now. I haven't had any

problems.

 

The only thing I know of that doesn't work in x64 is a special OneNote

virtual printer.

He might want spreadsheets or databases larger than can be handled by 32-bit

Windows. I know my Access programs could use that shot in the arm.

Re: office 2007 64bit ?

 

Poking around the web a while back I saw some references to MS kicking

around the idea of a 64-bit Office but it never materialized. At this

point it's not a huge issue. About the only app that could even begin

to take advantage of it would be Access, and I don't think Access was

really designed for that scale of database.

 

Personally I think it would be cool, though ever since I switched to

IMAP for my mail I don't use Outlook much, since it's IMAP support is

not very good.

There is, supposedly, a version of Excel that will run as a service in

native 64-bit. But I haven't heard that it's shipping.
