I was wrong, it does support Windows 7 and 8 function calls.

Another option is WINE for Mac OS.  It is open source and free but too complex 
to install for the average user.  The easiest solution is a commercial build of 
WINE by www.codeweavers.com called CrossOver for Mac OS at $60 USD.  CrossOver 
runs Win32 apps natively on a Mac without a Windows operating system required.  
Several of my customers are using it successfully.

 

I believe it implements all Windows XP functions, not Windows 7.

 

When you run it, it asks for your Windows installer and away it goes.  Very 
simple to use apparently.  I don’t have a Mac myself.

 

If you did have a Mac, you could use something like Wineskin to create a Mac OS 
wrapper for your app.  A customer of mine created one for one of my apps and 
gave it to me, so I can distribute it to anyone wanting to run it on a Mac.  It 
works very well.

No you will need Lazarus on a MAC to make MAC executable.

This link 
http://www.sysprobs.com/download-lion-os-x-10-7-3-vmware-image-and-make-it-work-on-windows-7-computer
 should get you to a location you can download a VM of OSX. You can then just 
get VMWare player (free) and get it working. OR, your customer could get 
parallels for MAC and run a windows VM on his MAC.

I only have one application so I don't want to spend any money !!

Lazarus could be an option but can I compile to make a Mac exe using a PC ?

Any other suggestions are welcome. One is to give him an old PC laptop.

Cheers Wallace
