Office 2010 compatibility

Evaluating the compatibility of existing hardware, Office documents, add-ins, and line-of-business applications is an important part of planning an Office 2010 deployment.

Office 2010 is compatible with Windows 8.

Compatibility tools primer

  1. Assess Office 2010 readiness by using the MAP toolkit.
  2. Identify Office add-ins and applications by using OEAT.
  3. Use OMPM to assess binary files and macros and optionally convert files to the Open XML format.
  4. Use OCCI to inspect Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) and Visual Studio Tools for Office code for incompatibilities with Office 2010.
