>As long as you have 32 bit Office, it will work.

Yes, but he is saying that it works even on 64 bit Office, which is nice for when we tried it did not work (in particular Outlook) so we switch all our users to 32 bits Office.

Jos, do you remember if you did anything special? I just googled and I found one guy saying that upon installation it will ask you if you run 32 bit automation, but we just tried to install office 64 in Windows 2012 Server (64 bits) and we neither got the question asked nor we could find an option on the installation options

This is the quote I found "Installation process of 64 bit Office 2010 asked if I want to use automation from 32 bit programs or not. So, I've answered YES and now the CREATEOBJECT("word.application") and CREATEOBJECT("excel.application") works."
