Hello Ebo,
That's great news! Can you please clarify few questions:
1) How this change will be delivered to those who already have Office installed? Do they have to do Office update, or Windows update, or whatever else?
2) Office x64 COM objects such as Access.Application - they are accessible both for x86 and x64 consumer apps. Will this out-of-bubble ACE have the same feature? I mean if someone has Office x64 installed - will he be able to use Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB from x86 application?
3) As I remember this bubble thing was introduced in Office 2010. Can you please confirm that those who still use Office 2010 & 2013 - they still have to install ACE redistributable to be able to use Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB?
UPDATE and one more question -
4) when these changes will be available? I've just checked with my O365 x64 v 2001 build 12430.20184 which should be the latest for the current date - looks like it does not work yet.
Cheers,
Konstantin
