Instead of reposting the same question you should update the original. You now have two answers which are essentially the same, mine and that of KarstenK. So one (or both) of us have just wasted a few minutes doing the same as the other.

Read about the documentation yourself but you need to provide 2 different versions of the tlb for 32 and 64 bit platform.

One possible solution to guard these tlbs with some x64 macros. Like

C++

#ifdef _X64_ // or your x64 define
1 TYPELIB "TellerCaptureX64.tlb"
#else
1 TYPELIB "TellerCaptureX.tlb"
#endif

Ofcourse you will need to build that tlb on a x64 system. Pay attentation not to fetch the x32 binaries.
