The version of Wine that ships with WPOffice 9 is getting pretty creaky. As far as I can tell, Corel doesn't have any updates on their site, but as far as I know there's no reason that someone couldn't update their version. Anyone have any luck with this? I'm still trying to reproduce their build parameters. -- | I'm old enough that I don't have to pretend to be grown up.| +----------- D. C. Sessions <dcs@lumbercartel.com> ----------+

Perhaps someone closer to the source can correct me if I'm wrong. Perhaps you'll be able to run WP Office directly off the latest CVS at that point. drovar
You can download the latest Corel Wine CVS from opensource.corel.com. While the most current WineHQ builds might run WPOffice to a certain extent, some important features such as printing and support for TrueType fonts will be broken. That code will never make it from Corel's Wine tree to WineHQ due to its depandance on Bitstream's FontTastic product. -Gav "D. C.
