hi all
i am not much of an application programmer but i somehow got a contract to build a fairly substantial database application for a nonprofit that runs entirely on Macs. i could have a VB application pumped out in about two weeks for this but everything is macs, so i installed MAMP (an apache, mysql, PHP install) on their server and have been using php but this is not really what php is made for. i was wondering if there was a simple easy (VB like) way of programing for Macs, i know very little Java, or Python and i don't even know if they would be what i need. but if anyone knows a good way of making a python program with lots of forms or another language that would work i would love the help
thanks
eric
I don't know of a 'VB like way' as I really don't know VB, but I know that Perl has its DBI module specifically for interacting with databases. I know other languages also have interfaces for databases, but having a lot of experience with Perl (and moderating over there), I tend to favor it highly.
If you started working on something and had any questions, simply post to the Perl forum and we can help whenever you get stuck.
I recommend it also because it also works on Macs.
Regards,
Jeff

Test if it is a Mac or a Windows Machine

More information about testing the Excel version or Excel language you can find on this page : Mac Excel version and Mac Office language settings

You can useconditional compiler constants to test the Operating system or test if you run a 32 or 64 bit version of Office.

Mac

The macro below will test the Operating system, you can replace the msgbox line with your code or Macro call.

Office 2011 for the Mac is always 32 bit and Office 2016 for the Mac can be 32 or 64 bit, all builds 15.26 and later are exclusively 64-bit. So every Mac Office 2016 install that is up to date is 64 bit.

Mac

Below you can find a test macro and three UDF functions that you can use to test theOperating system, test if you run a 32 or 64 bit version of Office and give you the Excel version number.

With the three functions above it is easy to test what you want in your VBA projects.

New MAC_OFFICE_VERSION conditional compiler in Office 2016

In Mac Office 2016 they add a newconditional compiler constant named MAC_OFFICE_VERSION. In most cases you can test the Application.Version(>=15) if you want like I show you on this page:
Mac Excel version and Mac Office language settings

But if you want to avoid compile errors with for example ribbon macro callbacks in Excel 2011(this not compile for example in 2011: control As IRibbonControl) or use VBA functions that are new in 2016 like AppleScriptTask and GrantAccessToMultipleFiles, you can add the ribbon macro callbacks or the new VBA functions in between the two code lines below in your code module.

#If MAC_OFFICE_VERSION >= 15 Then
