Hello kevin,

first: don't attach logs in PDF format (without ability to copy text), always
attach files in plain text format!

However, Office 2010 32 bit does not install on arch linux 64 bit even when a
NEW, SEPARATE 32 bit prefix environment has been set
--- quote ---

Your log shows:

--- snip ---
$ export WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.wine-wow/
$ winecfg
$ export WINEARCH=win32
$ wine <installer>
--- snip ---

This recipe is kind of pointless.

You obviously set the prefix to an existing prefix '~/.wine-wow' (there is no
terminal message indicating prefix creation when you run 'winecfg').

Also setting WINEARCH on existing prefix is useless, you can't change the
prefix to 32-bit _after_ it has been created.

Please make yourself familiar what WINEPREFIX means and how it works.

Wine appdb has sections dedicated to MS Office installation, with many hints,
notes.
