I've been using wine for several years to run the Lotus Notes client at work
and found how to get Notes to launch mozilla and openoffice. So now I can
open M$ format files (well, most of them) without having to resort to using
windows terminal server or a windows based pc. However, I'm having a
problem
with acroread 5.0. I can get it to launch, but it claims it can find the file
or path specified. The registry hack I've used is the same as for the
msoffice products, namely:
[Software\\Classes\\Word.Document.8\\shell\\open\\command] 1017676971
@="Z:\\usr\\bin\\Winword.exe \"%1\""
This works for Word files. I have a link to ooffice for Winword.exe.
But I've had no luck with acroread with:
[Software\\Classes\\AcroExch.Document\\shell\\open\\command] 1017688446
@="Z:\\usr\\bin\\acroread.exe \"%1\""
TIA,
Wayne
