Default Chip Pearsons "Rowlander" add-in won't install

When I try to install rowlander I get the message : "compile error in hidden
module: modRegistery" I have a iMac OSX 10.4.10. Any ideas on how I can
get it to install.

RowLiner won't work on a Mac because it uses Windows API functions to work
with the Windows System Registry to store and retrieve user preferences and
the Windows API function don't exist on a Mac. You are welcome to modify the
code yourself if you want. Email me for the password.

Chip - I thought you had an earlier version that didn't use the API
functions - or else I modified that version years ago. Am I
misremembering?

In any case, I've got a version that works if the OP would like to email
me.

I may have, many moons ago. That would have been 2 or 3 computers ago. Does
the Mac support the GetSetting and SaveSetting functions?

KC,

The GetSetting and SaveSetting functions are a very simplified way to write
values to the System Registry. Unlike the Windows Registry API functions,
GetSetting and SaveSetting always stored data in the key
"HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\VB And VBA Program Settings" and store and
retrieve only text strings, not other data types. You can use these
functions on any version of Windows (95 and later). I have no idea whether
these function will work in a Mac system.

Yes. Though Macs don't have a registry, MacOffice emulates it in
preference files.
