Office 2007 64 bit?

[Michael Taylor]

Hello,

Is Office 2007 a 64 bit application when installed on Vista using a 64 bit
processor.

I came across some information indicating that some minor office functions
would not work on a 64 bit platform, such as audio support for Onenote.

If it is not currently 64 bit, does MS plan to release a pure 64 bit
version, and will it provide enhanced security such as protected mode in IE7
on Vista 64 bit?

Just wondering if its worth waiting for a 64 bit version of Office.

Thanks
Mike

The answer to all your questions is no. Office 2007 is purely 32-bit and
there won't be a 64-bit Office 2007.
A crucial thing that doesn't work on 64-bit with OneNote is the OneNote
printer driver.
