You can install Oracle 32-bit and Oracle 64-bit on the same server. The two installs must reside in different ORACLE_HOME directories though. So install Oracle 32-bit in a different directory than your 64-bit version and they will both coexist quite nicely.
In Windows. Check the Inst_loc entry value which will be the software installed location. You can use command prompt or you can navigate/explore to the oracle home location and then cd to bin directory to lauch sqlplus which will give you the client version information.
Oracle VM VirtualBox is cross-platform virtualization software. It allows users to extend their existing computer to run multiple operating systems including Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, and Oracle Solaris, at the same time.
64-bit applications require the 64-bit Oracle Client. Some applications are not available for 64 bit or not very common, e.g. MS Office which may utilize ODBC. If you run only 32-bit applications then there is no need to install also an 64-bit Oracle Client.
Bring up command line prompt. Cd into the client directory and type in/run TNSPING. This will display client information and should note 64bit or 32bit.
