    Excel Stopwatch for Mac users (OSX, Excel 2008)

    Hello. I'm using Excel 2008 on a Mac running OSX Leopard. I have been trying to figure out a way to include a stopwatch in a worksheet, but to no avail.

    It seems like there are a ton of pre-made stopwatch macros, but they're all VBA based - they'll work on a PC, but not a Mac. Does anyone know of a Mac friendly Stopwatch, or have any advice on how to create my own? Unfortunately, I'm a rank amateur.

    Thanks for taking the time to read my post!

    Hello raptproductions,

    Since MAC OS X Leopard doesn't support Windows API, it most likely it will have to be programmed in AppleScript. Because we are PC orientated, it may take a while for your question to be answered. Have you posted your question with a Mac newsgroup?
