Is there a way to get a response from dell on this topic?

DellUser.101,

Office for Android is created by Microsoft. At the Microsoft Store, it states that

Office 365 Home

(5 PCs or Macs
5 tablets including
iPad,
Android, or
Windows
5 phones )

Office 365 Personal

(1 PC or Mac
1 tablet including iPad,
Android, or
Windows
1 phone )

Office 365 plans (Office 365 Home and Office 365 Personal) are compatible only with Windows 7 or later, and Mac OS X 10.6 or later. Office Home & Student 2013, Office Home & Business 2013, and Office Professional 2013 are compatible only with Windows 7 or later. You can install on Windows tablets running Windows 8 or higher, Android tablets running KitKat 4.4, and on iPads running iOS 7.0 or higher.

Don't forget the Android tablet must be running an ARM CPU not Intel.

Thank you for the Tutorial.  

However, in that the Venue runs on KitKat 4.4 and I own and use office on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8  and Galaxy Note 4...I still do not understand why a Microsoft Partner namely Dell would not want their new "Best of Show" product to be compatible with Office for Android.

Your response does not address my question.

Thank you.

Thank you for the response.

"Office for Android also excludes support for all of the ARM tablets that haven't been (or can't be) upgraded to KitKat."

I can assure you that the Venue 8 7000 series ships with KitKat "Android 4.4.4"

I still wonder how and if Office for Android will be compatible with the Venue 8 7000.

Is there someone from Dell who can answer this question.  I have just a few days left to return this tablet and the clock is ticking.

We are working with Microsoft to resolve this.  Appears to be an issue with x86 support.  Plan is to get this working but it will take time to resolve.

Thank you for your response.  Please kindly keep us informed as a solution is available.

Are there any updates given Dell's announcement about shipping ms office with Android products.

We are looking to have this available in Q2.

DELL CAN NO LONGER BLAME MICROSOFT.

"Microsoft truly has been on a tear bringing their apps and services to tablet users, and not just users of their own Windows operating system. In this latest release, a new Preview of their Office apps is available for any tablet 10.1-inches and smaller running x86 architecture."

UNLESS YOU HAVE A DELL VENUE 8 7000 SERIES. THEN, STILL NO SUPPORT FOR OFFICE.
