    Which language did you write the app in?

    Assuming Classic VB (as most of your recent posts are in that forum), the answer is you can't.. you would need to re-write in an appropriate language.

    There are "VB-like" languages that support compiling for Mac's, but from what I have heard they differ enough to not be a simple transfer, and the 'decent' ones cost quite a bit.
