RE: run 32-bit compiled against 64-bit Instance?

  9.x is available as both 32bit and 64bit on Sun. (Am not sure about HP though.) There was a metalink note stating that 9.x is the terminal release for 32bit. So with 10.x there shouldn't be a 32bit version for Sun. But then you never know.

Regards,
Denny
