wine users - Aug 2005 - Help : Installation of Office XP with Wine May 2005

Dear all Wine-users,

I'm last-year student of Hanoi University of Technology in Vietnam. 

My graduate thesis has important part relate to Wine and installation of Windows
applications in Linux via Wine. I have completed all part of my thesis except
Wine related part.

I installed Office XP with Wine May 2005 and it always failed. Before installed
Office, I had installed Dcom98.exe , InstMsi.exe, IE6 (Althought IE6 had some
errors but it still worked).When I installed Office Xp, it updated my file
system the first. Then it show Cdkey window, customize window, and it fail at
middle of progress in preparing install window with message "Error 25003 :
Microsoft Office Xp setup can not continue because installation source has been
corrupted". In debug mode, it thraw some errors with ntdll.dll,
setupapi.dll and I found some patchs for them. Now it didn't throw this
errors but still corrupted.

My thesis implemented time is runned out. I have only a week remain to complete
this problem.

I know here are many professional Wine-users and Wine-developers. Please help me
or my graduate thesis will fail.

 

Sincerely,

Dang Hai Thanh.

The later versions do not work well. Try moving back to the Oct 2004 
version of wine. Word and Excel both work reasonably well in that level.

I would love to get Office working of a later version but they do not work.
