Bex on Mac OS X possible?

[cornelia_lezoch]

Hello,

has anyone of you already installed the SAP GUI including the Bex explorer (needed for SAP BI) on MAC OSX?

I found a presentation from SAP where they say it is not possible to have the Bex Explorer within the SAP GUI for Java.

So how are we supposed to reach the query designer or web application designer?

Thanks for your help

As far as I know, there are no version available for Mac OS X.

The best option I'd recommend is to install a virtual machine (VMWare Player (Free) www.vmware.com as an example) to install a Windows XP machine running over Mac OS X and install the BEx tool overthere.

Works well, that's what I'm using from home. Other solution would be to configure Bootcamp on your Mac to install a dual boot Windows XP / Mac OS X.
