It can be both. This is a very confusing part of the VS interface. I found this blog helpful.

Thanks, still does not clear it up though.

It does seem that VS assumes a 64 bit CPU will have above it an 64 bit OS.

At least I'll have to work under that assumption of its assumption.

Besides the OS kernel magic, is there anything intrinsically different between running a 32-bit app on a 64-bit OS vs. running a 32-bit app on a 32-bit OS?

I don't believe so. The reason I ask this is mainly just a matter of trying to clear it up because it was a little brain blip when I thought about changing the way I compiled a C# project. I'm using SQLite (System.Data) and you need to use either the 32 or 64 bit versions. I did not want to make two versions of the binary, so decided to use just the 32 which should run on both. It was then it occurred to me I want it to run on both 32 and 64 bit OSes and 32 and 64 bit CPUs. Then the confusion set in.
