How Do I Know if I’m Running 32-bit or 64-bit Office 2010?

Are you wondering if you’re running the 32 bit or the 64 bit version of Office 2010?  Here’s how you can quickly find out which version you’re using.
Office 2010 is the first version of Office with a native 64 bit version, but by default, most users will be running the 32 bit version of Office 2010.  The default setup for Office 2010 will install the 32 bit edition even on 64 bit systems so you can easily run older addins and VBA scripts for Office.  The 64 bit version does let you use larger files, such as spreadsheets larger than 2Gb, but doesn’t offer many advantages for average users.  Still, though, it can be confusing, as many newer addins are available in both 32 bit and 64 bit, otherwise known as x86 or x64, versions.  If you’re unsure which ones to use, here’s how to check.
Check your Office Version
First, open any Office application.  In this example, we’re using Word 2010, but it works the same in the other office apps.  Open the File menu, and then select Help.

 On the right side, you’ll see information about your version of Office.  It will show the suite version and included applications, as well as your precise version number and product ID.

 Notice on the right of the version number it shows that this copy of Office is 32-bit.  As mentioned before, this is the most common version of Office 2010.

 If you’re running the 32 bit version, you’ll need to download the 32-bit or x86 version of Office addins.

 Or, if you have the 64 bit version of Office installed, you’ll see the 64-bit tag after your Office version number.  You’ll want to select x64 versions of addins.

 If you accidently try to install a 32-bit addon on a 64 bit version of Office or vise-versa, the installer will usually let you know so you’ll be able to download and install the correct version.  Also, we’ve noticed many 32-bit addins, including somewhat older ones, that work fine in the new 64 bit version, so your mileage may vary.

Conclusion
Although this isn’t something you’ll need to check every day, it can be handy to know if you’re running the 32 bit or 64 bit version of Office 2010. Read more...

NOTE YOU NEED A KEY TO INSTALL THE RETAIL VERSION.


Microsoft has reportedly released its latest version of the Office System to manufacturing. A third-party source indicates that Office 2010 was RTM’d on April 12, 2010, the deadline for the general availability of Visual Studio 2010 and .NET Framework 4. The Redmond company has not made any official announcements related to the RTM of Office 2007’s successor, and not commented in any manner on speculation in the wild, let alone to confirm or deny reports according to which it has already signed-off Office 2010.

However, Wzor notes that Office 2010 RTM should be expected any day now, and it was the Russian website that pointed to April 12 as the RTM development milestone for the productivity suite. According to what little information is available, two assemblies of Office 2010 are considered for the RTM Build. Wzor claims to have additional information related to the potential Office 2010 RTM Builds, but that it will only publish it after Microsoft decides which of the releases will be offered to customers.

Still, it’s nothing short of common sense to guess that the software giant is close to wrapping up Office 2010, if it hasn’t done it already. In just a month, Microsoft has scheduled the business launch of Office 2007’s successor. The company already confirmed that Stephen Elop, president of the Microsoft Business Division, would host the launch of Office 2010 and SharePoint 2010 on May 12, 2010 at 11 a.m. EST.

At the same time, the wait is almost over for consumers as well. The public is slated to receive the Office 2010 RTM bits in June 2010, approximately two months from now. However, if I were to speculate, I’d say that chances are that MSDN and TechNet subscribers will be among the first to get Office 2010 RTM, perhaps even before business customers.
