One problem I've run into is that by default, the framework runs in 64-bit mode. This can cause silent failures if you're calling 32-bit dlls in your code (e.g., via interop). There's a compiler switch that you can set to force 32-bit mode: /platform:x86 (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/zekwfyz4(VS.80).aspx )

I created a 2.0 application and my brother tried to run it on a WinXP64 machine and it would not run. Is there some web site that talks about the possible problems?

As far as .NET, from v.2.0 (I haven't looked at this in a while, so please correct me), but the same binaries that you create for .NET 2.0 will run natively in 64 bit (as they are JIT compiled as 64 bit instructions on those OS's).

Can you generate a 64 bit .Net application for 64 bit Windows? What about SQL Server? Can it run on a 64 bit back end server? =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor. http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor. http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor. http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com =================================== This list is hosted by DevelopMentor® http://www.develop.com View archives and manage your subscription(s) at http://discuss.develop.com
