    different platform in MS visual studio

    Hi

    I am a newbie in Microsoft visual studio.
    According to the documentation, the solution can contain several
    projects. Each project can run with different platform with Win32 or
    x64.
    I don't understand this. I use Win32. Then I cannot run this
    solution on x64, can I? If I use x64 window OS, why should I choose
    Win32 platform?


    Thank you in advance.

    You may build on one machine to run on another machine.

      Do you mean I can build the solution in Win32, but run it on x64?
      But can I do it vice versa?

        I think that if you define your headers/compile options correctly,
        you can compile in either platform for the other platform.
