We are looking at upgrading our current production application to a XP64
because of the memory addressability (we are blowing our memory model).

we currently are on VS .Net 2003.

Is there a patch to 2003, or must we upgrade to 2005 beta. if so what
limitations are known in the beta version.

Applications developed with VS2003/1.1 run on Windows x64 only as 32-Bit.

To build applications for 64-Bit you must compile with .NET 2.0 compilers
and/or use Visual Studio 2005:

C# compiler switch : /platform anycpu (or restrict to x64)
