Connector and Office 2010 (64-bit)
Problem:
Solution:
CaseWare Connector is a 32-bit program and is not compatible with Microsoft Office 2010 (64-bit). Compatibility cannot be integrated as a patch release within the 2010 lifecycle as various base level components must be rewritten.
As such, compatibility with the 64-bit version of Office 2010 will not be available for Connector 2010.
Please refer to this Microsoft article:
In particular:
Will a 64-bit version of the Office 2010 product be available?
Yes, 64-bit Office 2010 product upgrades will be available. However we strongly recommend most users install 32-bit version of Office 2010 on both 32 and 64-bit Operating Systems because currently many common add-ins for Office will not function in the 64-bit edition. The 64-bit installation of Microsoft Office 2010 products will be available for users who commonly use very large documents or data set and need Excel 2010 programs to access greater than 2 GB of memory. There may be technical issues with the 64-bit version and in order to install a 64-bit version of Office 2010 product users must have a 64-bit supported operating system on their PC.
