You should have as part of UM 4.x a TimeOut called Macros to Menus.
This will convert your Macro to a TimeOut for you. The absolute
solution is for your friend to buy UM4.x himself, so he can compile,
and modify if necessary, your original source code. UM 4.x also
contains the latest version of TimeOut Options which can launch your
macros if you have saved them as Task Files.
