From: I-nfo-T-ainment on 11 Feb 2010 16:27 Hi there, does anyone have experience with MS-Office 2010 64bit, esp. with regard to its alleged capability to handle files larger than 2 GB? We tried the latest 64bit-beta that is available for download, and found the following: Excel: Will not complain at files > 2 GB, opens them, pulls in its 1,000,000 records, and just silently drops the rest of the file Access: Will NOT open files > 2 GB, says "File has no data, or is too large". That's what we are getting with earlier versions of Office, and also with 32bit-versions, that cannot handle > 2 GB. We are wondering wether this is due to the fact that this is still a beta, or if maybe we have made some kind of mistake here. Any input is welcome.

Thanks. I found out that MS-Access 2010 64bit still cannot go beyond 2GB file size, and EXCEL only with a 3rd-party add-in, which I haven't tried yet. So, basically, MS still hasn't fulfilled their promise regarding >2GB for the 64bit-version.
