From: Aschvetahata on 7 May 2010 05:36 I get a "wrong version" error message when I attempt to install Office Sounds on the 64-bit version of Office 10. Is there a work-around or alternate site that I can use? Note: The Office Sounds program works on the 32-bit version of Office 10. Thanks in advance for your help/advice. -- " ... denn so redet m i r die Gerechtigkeit: die Menschen sind nicht gleich. Und sie sollen es auch nicht werden." Nietzsche.

This blog may help - it's a transitional period for Microsoft Office since most add ons - Microsoft or third party - were designed for 32 bit versions of Office - 2007 and recent previous office releases were all 32 bit versions. To maintain the greatest degree of compatibility - use Microsoft Office 2010 32 bit version or if you use Microsoft Office 2010 64 bit version, certain add ons will not operate as expected or at all. This will change over time as more add ons are designed or redesigned for Microsoft Office 2010 64 bit version. http://blogs.technet.com/office2010/archive/2010/02/23/understanding-64-bit-office.aspx "What version should you use? If you're trying to decide between 32-bit and 64-bit Office, you should ask yourself what your needs are. Are you an Excel power user working with huge amounts of data? Do you need to work with file sizes greater than 2 GB? If so, then you would benefit from 64-bit Office being able to utilize more memory. If not, we're recommending 32-bit Office 2010 as the default installation on both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows mainly due to compatibility with existing 32-bit controls, add-ins, and VBA (update: most VBA code will work without modification on 64-bit Office, but see this paper more details). We expect over time for 64-bit Office to become the norm."

David, thanks for your explanation. It is such a new product and the plug-ins etc. need time to be developed. -- " ... denn so redet m i r die Gerechtigkeit: die Menschen sind nicht gleich.
