#ISSUES FROM SWITCHING OFFICE 32BIT TO 64 BITT 64 BIT#

Does the Oracle client have to be 64 bit if MS Office is? Or do I just need the 64 bit Oracle Data Access Components? I've tried a bunch of different connection strings with no success, including using MSDAORA instead of OraOLEDB.Oracle. I'm trying to get a sense of what path I should be taking before I involve my company's IT department to try installing stuff for me.

I have scoured the net and cannot figure out what the issue is, but my best guess is there's some 32 bit vs 64 bit conflict with drivers I'm using.

Oracle server is Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production.

Oracle client is 11.2.0 32 bit (I think).

Windows is 7 Enterprise, service pack 1, 64 bit.

Excel is MS Office Professional Plus 2010 64-bit.

Relevant references: Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 6.1 Library I'm getting this error: Run-time error '3706': You will have a more stable, more compatible platform for your applications.I'm trying to connect my Excel to Oracle with this connection string in VBA: dim cn As New ADODB.ConnectionД¬n.Open 'Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle Data Source=source User Id=userid Password=pwd ' But, in the long run, I do believe it is worth it. There will be some headaches involved with your migration-I won't sugar coat it. I do think it is worth the effort to simply 'bite the bullet' and make the migration. I do believe that the 64-bit paradigm will be here to stay for a while. However, he could never share any documents with anyone, because they were in a different format, but it 'worked for him.' When he retired from the office, they lost all the historical records, because they were in a format that no one could use.

They had to search to purchase a special upgrade for his version of WordPerfect because his version was so outdated. Even though the office had long-since migrated to MS Office, he continued to use WordPerfect. He used WordPerfect-becuase he always used WordPerfect. They will continue to advance.ДЄnecdotally, my wife used to work in an office in which there was one employee (who had been in the office since the Stona Age). I would not recommend maintaining an old outdated project, 'just because it still works.' There may be some validity in that, but systems and software wait for no man.

For this reason, 64-bit applications can only link against a 64-bit ODBC Driver Manager library. 64-bit applications must be linked against 64-bit libraries. Without the ODBC-ODBC Bridge, a 64-bit application cannot connect to a 32-bit ODBC driver. I would recommend running through as much of what you do on a regular basis to find out where the incompatibility issues are and fix those as needed. Yes, you can connect a 64-bit application to a 32-bit ODBC driver by using the ODBC-ODBC Bridge. You have already done what I would have recommended, and that is to import your old objects into a new, blank DB. We had very few issues with the new 64 bit machines. We recently did our upgrade to 64-bit machines/Software here at work, too (government is always slow, due to validating security issues with new systems/software). I am a bit afraid of unknown compatibility issues, but likes what appears to be a bit more speed with the 64 bit version.Д¬an anyone share their experiences with 64 bit upgrades? Better to upgrade to 64 bit or stay at 32 bit?

Some comment on the Internet suggests that it is better to keep the 32 bit version, and avoid compatibility issues. This mostly works, though I noticed some errors (problems with code translation to 64 bit ?). For the 64 bit version, one needs to create a 64 bit blank database, and import all the 32 bit objects into the blank data base. Our existing MS Access code runs completely (it appears) without problem on the 32 bit version of MS Access 2016 (32 bit). We thus decided to upgrade to MS Access 2016.ДЇull disclosure: Never realised there was 32 vs 64 bit Versions of MS Access. They were running MS Access 2007, which is no longer supported by Microsoft. We have about 7 machines on a front end back end configuration running off our mighty (cheap) WDMењњloud 'server'.

I volunteer coding MS Access for a food bank in Aylmer, Quebec.
