Access 64bits database running on 32bits clients possible

Fair enough but my point still applies.
Try opening an ACCDB with a modern chart in a version of Access prior to 2016. It will open but the chart won't be shown as stated on post #17
 
Further to Doc's comments, two examples of Access libraries that weren't ported to 64-bit are Flexgrid and Treeview.
There are others.

I don't have an old version to test but here is the message:

I'm not disagreeing with that message.
However, it will work in the way I described as an ACCDB file in older versions of Access.
Whereas, allowing bigint support, even if not used, will prevent the ACCDB file working in A2013 or earlier
 
I found it interesting that a database using rich text fields worked without a problem in A2003, except that the control codes/HTML tags became visible.
