I am developing application which uses ODP.NET to connect to Oracle DB. I would like to have one version for both 32bit and 64bit machines. The problem is that I couldn't figure out how to build projetc with anycpu target, seems it requires the target to be the same as ODP driver version. So it means that I need to have to versions of the same application one for 32bit and other for 64bit. But the same was not problem while using MS .NET Oracle client (System.Data.OracleClient). Is there a way to have the same behavior using ODP.NET as on MS .NET client?

Just update few years later: Oracle released managed ODP.NET client, so there's no need to bother with x64/x86 in .NET applications any more. You can find more information on Oracle website: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/dotnet/index-085163.html
