run my program on mac?
Ok, basically, i have my procram in vb6 and i can compile it to an .exe, but exe does not run on mac, how do i get a program i have made to run on mac?
i searched around and some people said you can't convert an exe to a version that runs on mac, but if you have the source code, then you can do it.
I have made a program in VB6 and i do have the source code, so does anyone know how i can do it?

Re: run my program on mac?
As far as I know, VB cannot run on a Macintosh unless it is running Windows.
There may be a project such as Wine for Linux that will allow you to run executables on a Macintosh, but I am not aware of one.

VB6 can only produce executables for Windows (and only desktop/server versions).
You could use a Windows emulator (like Wine as kfcSmitty mentioned) on non-Windows OS's, or re-write your program in another language.

No one in their right mind running a MAC would bother trying to get a program written in VB6 working.
Switch to VB.NET and get onto the Mono project, or rewrite your application in another language (as si said).

There is a build of Wine for OS X that works very well I should add and the application may run under that.
