HOW TO CHECK BITNESS FOR AN
.EXE, .DLL OR .OCX FILE
 An .EXE file, a .DLL file and a .OCX file (and some

bitness of the files so the files will be placed in
correct folders during the installation.

HOW TO INSTALL A 64 BIT PROGRAM
USING VISUAL INSTALLER
 Visual
Installer is a versatile installation tool and can
install both 32 bit and 64 bit Windows
applications. Most of this process is handled
automatically and beneath
the surface, but you have to inform Visual Installer if
your application is 32 bit or 64 bit. How this is
handled is described in this tip on our website:
