Hello, that should not be the case. Could try another Wine version? Please look at the Wine AppDB first, it seems that Office 2000 does work with Wine 0.9.53 quite well. If it works with 0.9.53, the only thing you can do is to report and hope it gets fixed soon. And please, don't shout like that... Have fun, Lisa Denia hpk wrote:> Hello i have a great Problem!!! > When i install Office2000 it will work great but when i start word or ecxel i get the message that i must insert the serial again!!! > They wont write it to the registry!! > I have tryed many times but allways the same! > Please help me!! > Thanks > bye > HPK > > > > >

We can get your message without them. Can you try to get Wine 0.9.56 for your operating system and see if this problem exists? If it does NOT exist, please try again with 0.9.57 and if it does exist, let us know. Thank you. James
Hello, I have found the cause of this problem and I am working on a solution. It looks like the Wine version of the "Windows installer" writes entries in the registry which cause all of Office 2000 to fail. I will post detailed instructions in the topic http://forum.winehq.org/viewtopic.php?t=249 which has the title Wine 0.9.57 - Cannot Install/Use Office 2000 Premium when I'm happy with the fix. Regards, Charles.
