On a windows platform you currently have to choose between either 32 or 64 bit OpenEdge installation. You cannot install both. Our "classic" application uses some 32bit OCX's (eg. Microsoft Common controls). Our .Net UI doesn't use OCX's. so it can run 64 bit. We have to maintain and be able to run both versions (also on customer sites), because of this we cannot install OpenEdge 64 bit. This prevents adaption of the 64 bit windows version. On linux 32 bit & 64 bit can coexist and there we moved to 64bit years ago. We don't need full dual OpenEdge installation (which was scheduled for 11.x but dropped) it would be sufficient if the 64bit install would include 32bit version of the clients prowin32.exe, _progress.exe & _proapsv.exe. Personally I don't need the 32 bit appserver, I added it for completeness. I think this could be achieved similar to the data administration utilities (bin/83dbutils, bin/91dbutils, ...)
