ObjectDBX on 64-bit

I am opening and compiling my VBA modules in AutoCAD 2010-x64 and have come across a few that use ObjectDBX.  The library is unselected in References, and when I try to select it, a message box says simply "Error in loading DLL".

 

Will the ObjectDBX 18.0 Type Library work on the Win7-x64 OS?  My guess is no, but I need confirmation as I will have to explain to the "higher-ups" that some porting is required.

The general consensus is that the next version of AutoCAD (2012) will not contain VBA even as a download.  As such it's not a question of if, but rather when you begin porting.

Good point BUT...if my current code still works for another year+, i'm putting off the porting, which is what I'm already doing. 

 

My question had to do specifically with those VBA modules that reference the ObjectDBX library, and whether they would run on 64-bit Windows 7.  If not, then I have to port thiose I understand, but I only wish to do so if absolutely necessary.
