Yes, BootCamp is my alternative. I also have a PC with the Windows GUI to
use if BottCamp is unstable.

another option would to install the XP system on your intel based mac with
the bootcamp software and use the sapgui for windows while running windows
on the mac.

Hi Richard,
It's name - PlatinGUI - is short for Platform Independent. Meaning it does
everything as long as it's server-based, the WF editor uses ActiveX and
client-side scripting, so that also confirms Jacob's comments that it's
Windoze only.

Nothing wrong with the alpha editor: fast, no corruptions, no need for all
that scrolling about to see everything, easier to see what's going on
(that part is a lie :-)

You could of course disable scripting alltogether across your SAP system -
it's one of the instance profile parameters, I can dig it up if you need
it. Then nobody can use the graphical editor and you are no longer at a
disadvantage. OK, ignore me, it's late and it's been a long day.

Cheers,
Mike
