different platform in MS visual studio

[Mike]

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.
