You shouldn't have any issues.

Office 365 is not a direct replacement for Office installations.

Office 2010 onwards can work with an Office 365 subscription, i.e. connect to 
your inbox.  I believe Office 2010 needs to have the latest service pack.

Some Office365 subscriptions include a licence for the desktop products, some 
don't.  

Look at Office 365 more as a Hosted Exchange account + One Drive.

If your client still has the desktop applications if they already owned them 
(2010 onwards) or if they have downloaded and installed the latest versions via 
their Office 365 subscription then any automation you are doing on the local 
machine will continue to work.

Office 365 adds extra web based accessibility to your office files with the 
browser based versions of Word, Excel, Outlook etc. assuming your files are in 
your One Drive.  The browser based version do not offer the full functionality 
of the desktop applications.

This isn't the full story but the answer to your question should be a simple, 
if the applications are still installed locally then your automation should 
continue without issue.  Unless you have any version specific issues such as 
your customer gets Outlook 2013 desktop application as part of their 
subscription replacing their old Outlook 2007 applications for example and your 
code doesn't work with Outlook 2013.

Hope this helps.

This information is correct to the best of my knowledge and gained from 
experience migrating one of our customers from Office 2007 to a Office 365 
subscription which included access to all the Office 2013 desktop applications.

Thanks

Chris.

Subject: Office 365 and Office Automation?

Anyone had their clients "upgrade" to Office 365?

Client with extensive Office Automation from Fox into Word and Excel.

Anyone run into issues?
