Us Windows users should be ashamed of ourselves... > Does MS provide a 64 bit version of MSO office? The last time I checked, MSO did come in separate 32/64 bit versions. One of the major benefits of 64 bit is the database size. But I think Access limits one to 2GB which is the limit for a 32 bit version.
Often MS is more fanatic about backwards compatibility so their software is often limited by still supported Windows version. For years the base version of Windows was 32 bit XP. -- Jay Lozier jsloz...@gmail.com -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
