32bit 64bit

[Darin]

If i compile my VB.NET application for AnyCPU, is there a way at
run-time to force it to run 32bit on a 64bit OS?

Hi Darin,

Processor optimisations are done at compile time, so unfortunately not.
If you want to force it to 32bit, create a 32bit build and install it on a
64bit OS, it will install in the x86 Program Files folder.

Actually, tell a lie...

Still, personally, I'd just build it as a 32bit app, but that's just my
opinion.

thanks. we have one customer that wants it always 32bit but all other
customers want it either 64 or 32.

I will test this command out.
