ODBC drivers for sql server 2005, 64 bit

Hi,
I have a client server app that connects to sql server through ODBC, it
works fine when connecting to sql server 2005 32 bit, but when connecting to
sql server 64 bit from the client on Windows XP it behaves strangely, are
there separate set of odbc drivers that one has to use to connect to sql
server 2005 64 bit, even from 32 bit machine.
Thank you
VadimIt should be transparent to remote clients that the SQL Server is 64-bit.
The same client drivers can be used to connect to a 32 or 64-bit server.
Hope this helps.
