I am new to Wine and would like to run Family Tree Maker (which connects to the internet from within the programme) but I am not sure how to begin. I am running Lucid Lynx and I have downloaded Wine which now appears in my applications menu and I would like to run my copy of FTM in Wine. Thanks for your help. Brian

Test results from other people are there and so are how-tos and hints and tricks. Second, visit our FAQ at http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ for additional information. James McKenzie
Bad news: recent versions of FTM don't work in Wine. See http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?appId=494 This affects the head of Codeweavers personally, and he's as disappointed as you are. I'm sure it could be fixed, but it was hard last time anyone looked.
