The only difference between a 32bit and a 64 bit program is how much memory (RAM) the App can work with. 32bit apps are restricted to 4 gigabytes. I have never run across a Word document or Spreadsheet that is too big and makes OpenOffice need more then 4GB of RAM to process. But to answer your question: the App needs to be reworked to compile as a 64 bit application. Some volunteers were working on this back in January this year and reported up to 85% success rate in building the different modules that cromprise the office suite. But then they ran into technical hurdles. But work is ongoing and a 64bit windows build of OpenOffice will eventually E produced. Until then, use the 32bit OpenOffice version on 64 hit windows. 32bit or 64 bit does not impact how OO opens or fails to open certain files.
