IMPORTANT NOTE ON Monarch 32-BIT VS 64-BIT EDITIONS
Monarch is now available as a 32-bit or 64-bit application. The Monarch 32-bit edition will run on 64-bit Windows operating systems.
However, due to the requirement for an Access Database Engine, you must ensure that the Monarch Edition you install is compatible with your Microsoft Office Installation:
- If you are running Microsoft Office 2010 32-bit edition, you MUST install the 32-bit edition of Monarch
- If you are running Microsoft Office 2010 64-bit edition, you MUST install the 64-bit edition of Monarch
Use the following table to guide you on which Monarch edition and or Access Database Engine to install, based on the Microsoft Office edition you are currently using:
| 32-bit Monarch | 64-bit Monarch | |
| No Office Installation | Office 2007 System Driver | Access Database Engine 2010, 64-bit edition |
| Office 2003 and below | Office 2007 System Driver | Access Database Engine 2010, 64-bit edition |
| Office 2007 | No Additional Software Required | Access Database Engine 2010, 64-bit edition |
| Office 2010 32-bit | No Additional Software Required | NOT POSSIBLE* |
| Office 2010 64-bit | NOT POSSIBLE* | No Additional Software Required |
* Office 2010 does not allow the installation of both the 32-bit and 64-bit Access components concurrently. If you have the 32-bit version of Office 2010 installed and wish to use the 64-bit version of Monarch, you must uninstall the 32-bit version of Office 2010 and install the 64-bit version of Office 2010. Alternatively, it is also possible to uninstall the 32-bit version of Office 2010 and install Office 2007 and the Access Database Engine 2010, 64-bit edition in order to run Monarch 11, 64-bit edition.
