different platform in MS visual studio

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hi

I am a newbie in Microsoft visual studio.
According to the documentation, the solution can contain several
projects. Each project can run with different platform with Win32 or
x64.
I don't understand this. I use Win32. Then I cannot run this
solution on x64, can I? If I use x64 window OS, why should I choose
Win32 platform?


Thank you in advance.
