Process simulation and fluid properties with Excel 64 bits

[asanter]

I have utilized PRO DE PROPERTIES 32 bits version for process simulation and fluid properties in union with Excel 2007 under Windows Vista,
now our company is moving to Windows 64 bits and the new Excel 64 bits requires 64 bits libraries,
I know P RODE PROPERTIES 1.2 includes both 32 and 64 bits libraries but before to install the new version I wish to be sure that all my old files are compatible,
has anyone experienced problems upgrading from 32 bits to 64 bits version ?
Thank you.

hello asanter,
we have upgraded to PRODE PROPERTIES 64 bits,
no problems to utilize the same files of 32 bits version,
note that Microsoft Excel requires different declarations (in 32 and 64 bits versions) so you need to utilize the support files provided for 64 bits version.

only one comment,
if possible try to upgrade all applications working with Prode Properties from 32 to 64 bits,
differently you'll have to manage both versions of the library on the same computer
(ok, it's possible, but requires some time to locate folders, move ppp.dll etc. etc...)

dbert,
it is possible to install both 32 bits and 64 bits versions of PRODE PROPERTIES in the same computer,
I have Windows 64 bits, Excel 64 bits and other old 32 bits applications,
I have been able to run PRODE PROPERTIES 64 bits with Excel 64 Bits
and other 32 bits applications with PRODE PROPERTIES 32 bits.
