Hi,
Two questions linked:
-- Where can i download QT librairies for Windows 64 bit (MSVC 2008 or MSVC 2010 x64, and not Mingw) (free or not) ?
-- And what are databases supported by QT on Windows 64 bit (native 64 bit) ?
Thanks
Allan
(Sorry if this question has already asked or if it is not the good place)

Hi Allan,
You will have to build these from source yourself, using your compiler of choice. As for a database I'd go with PostgreSQL. http://postgresql.org

Hi,
I will prefer a packaged version for windows x64
Why is there no x64 packaged version on QT website ?
Thanks about info about postgresql
But what about oracle database and microsoft database 64 bit ?

I do not think there is one available simply due to the availability of resources (i.e. really busy trolls), but I will of course stand corrected if wrong. Oracle is of course an option. And I recommended PostgreSQL as I use SQL Server 2008 R2 (x64) everyday.

There is no prepackaged windows build for x86_64 (there is no such build for x64 either, but I think you are looking for the former one), but can be built "easily":http://developer.qt.nokia.com/wiki/How_to_build_64bit_Qt_for_windows.
You will find a list of available database drivers "here":http://doc.qt.nokia.com/latest/qsqldatabase.html#QSqlDatabase-3. Custom drivers can be added. You will need a DBMS that supports 64 bit, Qt does support it anyways.
It is Qt, not QT.
