Hi Andrew,

I haven't tried it myself (as I do not have access to a 64-bit Windows
system) but would also be interested to know. In theory it should work
but "the proof of the pudding is always in the eating".

On 64-bit Windows there is a subsystem called WOW64 which is designed to
enable 32-bit application to run on 64-bit Windows. An in-depth
description can be downloaded from:
