No problems will arise because of the different word size.

You will possibly see problems if you have the two versions set up to 
use different libraries; occasionally a workspace will fail to load if 
it needs a package that is not installed.  Normally on WIndows the same 
library can be used for both 32 and 64 bit R, but you could always 
choose to break that.

Hello,
 
I have both 32 and 64 bit verions of R installed. What happens if I open a 
workspace saved from 64 bit R
in the 32 bit version or conversely?
I am fairly careless but never noticed any problems.
