CrossOver Support - Community Forums

Hello,

I'm new here. I have a mac, but have one program I need to run that is Windows only. It is an app to print labels and manifest for Speedee Delivery a Regional shipped in the Midwest. Here is a link to the download. http://www.speedeedelivery.com/speedee_ship/download.html

I don't know if I'm in the right place or not, or how to go about getting this app to work.

I downloaded the program, used Codeweavers to install it, but nothing will open. If I use "Run Command," I get "Command Results The command "/Users/RawDelivery/Library/Application Support/CrossOver/Bottles/Spee-dee/drive_c/SPEEDEE/SpeeDeeShip.exe" returned 53."

I am completely new to Codeweavers and clueless. Any advice is much appreciated!

Thanks!

The only thing I have managed to figure out is that the application needs Visual Basic 6 runtime installed in the bottle.

After installing that, there's a complaint about "activeX", and frankly that's not good. I installed Internet Explorer 7 and 8 thinking that it probably expects that, but it didn't go anywhere. Since error "429" has about a thousand causes, I don't have the time or the will to find a fix for this right now. Maybe the staff would have an answer, there's no harm in opening a support ticket.

At this point, I would want to mention that activeX is a zombie technology. There a still a couple of things out there that use it, but it is crappy, antiquated technology. For as far as I know, even Microsoft's own most recent browser dumped activeX on win10. I think the blame is on Spee-Dee for providing software with such bad technology. It's time they move on.
