title: can I generate VC++ 64bit application on my 32bit XP machine?
body: <p>I have read few pages about 32-bit and 64-bit application but I am still not clear if I can build a <strong>VC++ application</strong> which target on 64-bit machine with my <strong>VS2008</strong> on my 32bit XP machine?
  Those pages are : <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/x4d2c09s%28v=VS.90%29.aspx" rel="nofollow">http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/x4d2c09s(v=VS.90).aspx</a></p>

  <p>They said by using <strong>64-bit compiler</strong>, we can build an application to run on 64-bit machine. But I cannot find anywhere tells me if I can install that 64-bit compiler on my <strong>32bit XP machine</strong>.</p>
