For various reasons I decided to use wine to operate Quickbooks 8.1 the Australian version. This was working beautifully up until last week. Now I have a problem with the drop down menus. When I click on them to show account info etc, they drop down then disappear. Sometimes they lock Quickbooks up and I have to force quit it. It all started when I was moving down to the bottom of pages with the mouse or clicking on the arrows, down or up. (technical talk) Then everything freezes. Again force quit. I don't understand. It was working flawlessly. I'm running Ubuntu 7.10. Installed wine from Add/Remove Apps etc. Anyone have any ideas? Cheers.

If it doesn't say wine-0.9.59 or higher, you probably want to update; see http://winehq.org/site/download-deb
Thanks Dan. It was an older version of wine. Funny though. It was a clean install and just did it through add and remove. I presumed it would download the latest version of wine. Tested Quickbooks. Seems to be working ok. Thanks again.
