MSO (all versions) is almost entirely C++, like most MS programs and
Win32 itself. Most of the very low-level stuff (including the NT Kernel) is
in C.
C++ had barely been invented when Word, Excel & Access were written,
and the compilers and language was still really immature when
Outlook and Powerpoint began. Even 8-10 years ago (when Office XP
was gestating as a modification of Office 2000) C++ programs were
still known dogs.
