Hi,
I'm writing windows application, in that i set the Target CPU as "X86" since i'm facing issues as mentoned below, when i run the application in the 64- bit machine.

Issues fixed by changing to "x86":
1. Jet OLEDB.4.0 not registered on the local machine.
2. Flash media player doesn't support in 64- bit machine.

I just want to know any other impact on my application when the running in 64 bit machinebecause of changing the Traget CPU property as "x86". Please let me know the pros and cons ofsetting the project Type CPU as "x86".

Thanks

Hi RM123,

I think you have installed Jet OLEDB.4.0(x86) and Flash media player(x86) on you computer. You application will use these two component. But when your application run on x64 computer, it will run as x64 mode. So x64 app cannot use x86 assembly. That cause the error. Build your applicaiton as x86 so it will be run as x86 mode on an x64 OS. So no problem occur. Only when all of the components are x64 you can run it with x64 mode.

Sincerely,
Kira Qian
