64-bit Web Apps Frustration

OK, this is less of a question and more of a general annoyance I have with Web Apps. I know it's been said elsewhere on here, but I find it absolutely aggravating that Microsoft Web Apps cannot play along with the 64-bit version of Microsoft Office. If I had known this was going to be such a problem, I probably wouldn't have gone with the 64-bit version of the software in the first place. I just hope that with the new version of Office this problem is getting fixed.

So, I guess there is a question in here, will Office 2013 64-bit be compatible with Web Apps, or is it still going to have compatibility problems? I just find it frustrating that Microsoft can't get their products to work seamlessly with each other.

Answer

Microsoft do not recommend using the 64-bit version of Office unless it is really needed in the case of very large, very complex, Excel workbooks.

 

I believe that both 32-bit and 64-bit versions are supplied on the media, so you might want to consider repacling the 64-bit with the 32-bit version.
