After reading other posts, I think I'm grasping for straws here but thought I would ask anyway. I'm trying to be able to view the webcam from my daughter's school, which requires activex. The cs tech at the school said I needed to first go through internet explorer and then there is activex for a mac available. So, even when going through ie, I can't find anywhere to download or get access to activex. Most of the posts say it is for windows users only, but there are several articles from 2006 saying that it is available for mac users and they would have complete access by the end of 2006. So, can anyone tell me if I am able to access this and if so HOW??? Thanks in advance, Kris

Activex Control Download For Mac

Maschine 2 download for mac os 10.14. Posted on

My client has a product based on Excel spreadsheets (2003- compatible) that we are porting to the Mac targeting Office 2011. These files using a significant amount of VBA code to check for valid licenses, perform functions, etc. We have been using .xls files but find that there are a number of problems with compatibility, including .xls files that compile fine on the PC but blow up when transported to the MAC due to subtle differences between the two, that I have been unable to code around (so far).

Activex For Mac Download

It was suggested that we using either .xlsm format or .xlsb format rather than .xls to work around these problems and reduce file sizes. This turns out not to work very well as we are using an ActiveX image control to 'veil' sheets in the workbook until the license is verified. This works fine in the ported .xls file, but immediately causes an error in the .xlsm and .xlsb format with the message that 'ActiveX is not supported and the workbook will now be read-only'. The VBA code proceeds to happily check the license, hide the ActiveX image 'veil' (that Excel just claimed was not supported) and display the sheet.

The veil is used because MAC users have the option of turning off Macros, which means that any active means of preventing a user from seeing the content won't work. The passive mechanism ensures that they turn on Macros and pass a license check before they see any content.

Is there any other way of putting an image in front of the content on the spreadsheet that does not involve Macros? Preferably, how do we get the ActiveX image, which works fine with .xls format to work with .xlsm or .xlsb and to turn off the bogus Read Only message?

All suggestions welcome.

Thanks, Neil
