Active-X Controls - Transfer to Mac (excel)
 

I'm blank... (can't remember)..
but if I create a file on my PC with Active-X Command Buttons,
with VBA code attached, will this run OK if I send to a MAC client/user?

hummmmm..

TIA,

From what I've read, Mac's don't use those activeX controls.

Maybe using a button from the Forms toolbar would be a better choice.

Exactly - ActiveX is Windows-only technology.

I had programmed in my Active-X commandbutton1_click event
..commandbutton2.enabled = False - So this logic and capabiltiy
for the Mac is N/A? Is there an alternative I can use?

The button will render as a graphic without events in MacXL.

Depending on what you're trying to accomplish, you've already been given
the best alternative - change to a Forms toolbar button with an attached
macro.

There are undoubtedly other alternatives...
