Office 64-bit Integration & Support?

SUGGESTED

What's the latest word on Sage 300 and Office integration?  Today we are running Sage 300 2018 and we are currently limited to Office 2019 32-bit.  We are upgrading to Sage 300 2021 this spring but it doesn't appear that Sage 300 2021 supports 64-bit Office.  Is that right?   

Has there been any discussion about supporting 64-bit Office? or any options for those companies that don't have a choice due to other requirements in their infrastructure?  Maybe workarounds or optional configurations?  

Finally, is Office 365 supported?  We dont use that flavor of Office, but are looking at possibly going that route...

    This post hasn't aged well, my comments are now wrong.

    I can confirm that on 2022 PU4, you can run 64-bit office, not only with Financial Reporter, but with custom VBA programming.  We upgraded one of our big clients last week, and they're happy that 64-bit Excel finally runs.

    The only issue I had was with VBA forms that had a Fieldedit control and a Datasource.  The Datasource control is not currently available in 64-bit.  The KISS solution for my client was to abandon the pretty finder and use a simple text field for them to type in the vendor number.
