    Switch the build from 64 to 32 in V C# Express ?

    I have instructions to build the app for 32 bit. The instructions tell you how to do this.. it says, "To change the platform, right click the project in the Solution Explorer and select 'Properties'. Select the 'Build' tab and choose 'x86' as the platform (by default it will be set to 'Any CPU')."

    This was written for Visual C# not the express edition. I am using the Visual C# express edition 2008 . I don't see this option under Build in Properties for my project. How do I do this?

    I am using Win 7 64 bit.

    1. The express editions doesn't have that option, but you can still change it manually in the *.csproj file in any text editor.

    2. Wouldn't it make sense to post a C# question in the C# sub forums and not the vb.net sub forum??
    Currently using VS 2015 Enterprise on Win10 Enterprise x64.

    Thanks.. and er.. Oh.. yeah.. I had been having VB on my mind so much that was a big brain fart. I just wasn't thinking.. and I had been up all night. LOL

    If it's that easy to implement that change I wonder why they didn't put it in.. seems with more people using 64 bit pc's due to the fact that a lot of prepackaged with OS's are being sold with 64 bit now. Still I am going to have to manually make that change a lot.

    Hey, perhaps I'll write an app to do that ! (one day)

    Thanks again!
