wine users - Jun 2006 - Success! Autocad 2000

I had about given up on getting this to work. But I read in different
forums that it would work, so... I kept fiddling with it and
it finally worked.
It seems autocad has it's DLLs in a directory called common files, but it
couldn't find them. Copying all of the files in that folder to the main
ACAD2000 folder made it work.
This was the last thing that had me booting XP occasionally.

That's good to hear.  What version of wine are you using,
and did you have to do anything else funny besides copying those dll's?

For what it's worth, I think the appdb mentioned copying the dlls:

but it says lots of other stuff, too.
