Hi,

I entered a 'spinner' via the 'control toolbox' toolbar.
It works fine on my computer but when I send the file to
others it doesn't work. Specifically a user with a mac
utilizing office 2000.

Please help,

Thanks,

jon
 
From what I've read from the mac gurus, the mac's don't support these activeX
objects.

J.E. McGimpsey just posted this to a different question about PCs and Macs:

XLA's are just workbook files saved in a different format, so in general
they will be compatible, subject to the same restrictions in any other
workbook:

1) MacXL does not support ActiveX
2) MacXL uses VBA5, equivalent to WinXL97. If you use VBA6 commands,
you'll need to conditionally compile or build in your own.
3) A few commands have platform specific arguments.
4) There are a very few commands (such as GetOpenFileName) that have
slightly different syntaxes.
5) Any Windows API calls will not work.
6) SendKeys, SendMail don't work in MacXL
7) Hardcoded paths (e.g., C:\, or using \ as a path separator) won't
translate.
