delpi 16/32 bits

Question:
If I program something in delphi for windows, the 16 bit win 3.11
version, could I just compile it in delphi for win95, 32bits?
The only difference should be in the 16/32bit stuff.

I'm asking this coz I dont have the cash right now for delphi 32bit.
And how x-pensive is it anyway?

Please mail directly....

Borland ported the whole library to 32-bit in Delphi-32, so if you
avoided using 'asm' and avoided calling win3.1 API's you should compile
your delphi app as-is to a clean perfect true 32-bit Win95 app.

And avoided the temptation to refer to the length byte of a string as
its zeroth element.
