Default Mac Excel 2008 Problem Using Excel 4.0 XLM Dialog Box Option Buttons

Mac OS X 10.5.6

Mac Excel 2008 12.1.5



(Posted on microsoft.public.mac.office.excel and
microsoft.public.excel.programming)



I am using Excel 4 XLM macro programming language to develop an add-in for
Mac Excel 2008. The add-in design has several custom dialog boxes
(specified by dialog box definition tables). Most code and dialog box
functions work fine.



The immediate problem is an option button group. The group box and option
buttons display properly, but the option buttons do not respond to mouse
clicks in Mac Excel 2008. The option box specified in the initial/result
column of the definition table continues to be selected, and it is
impossible to select any one of the other option buttons in the group.



As far as I can tell, the dialog box, group box, option button group, and
option buttons have been specified correctly. The option buttons do respond
to mouse clicks in Windows Excel 97-2007, Mac Excel X, and Mac Excel 2004.
But the same XLM dialog box does not respond to mouse clicks in Mac Excel
2008.



I would like to know if this behavior is a bug or if there is something I
can do to get an option button group to work properly in Mac Excel 2008.



I have posted two examples of XLM code and corresponding add-ins at
