I am attempting to install MS Office 2000 on a Fedora 3 system with the latest 12/1/2004 wine built from source. I was getting multiple errors followed by the wine debugger aborting. Based on information from the user group I have installed dcom98.exe ( by downloading dcom98.exe and running wine dcom98.exe ) This appeared to work , but produced a warning message ( newer version of dcom already installed) This did not seem to have any effect on the MS Office install. Then I went to Frank's corner and found a reference to installing MSI I downloaded InstMsiA.exe and installed it by typing wine InstMsiA.exe. Next I entered wine MSSETUP.EXE to start the Office install The MSOffice installer then started with a number of warning messages. I was able to select the custom install office and the installation appeared to start. A dialog message appeared indicating that Office was configuring my system. The dialog box appeared to freeze with about 5 percent completion. Inspection of the system monitor showed that CPU useage was 100 percent. No additional errors or warnings were displayed and the progress bar did not advance.

Use WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ole32=n" wine dcom98.exe This will install it. Then try with Office. Regards Joachim -- "Never touch a running system! Never run a touching system? Never run a touchy system!!!"
