Although not new to linux I am not a hardware person. I have a rather simplist (perhaps) question. The question is whether 32 bit SuSE will work on a 64 bit CPU?

I am planning on upgrading by linux machine to 64 bits and would like to use the primary master (linux installation only) on the new machine - which would make life considerably simpler for me.

Thanks in advances

Yes, you can run 32-bit SUSE on a 64-bit processor. In fact, one of my machines does just that...
