wine users - Aug 2003 - Wine and Oracle client OO4O

I have some Custom VB apps that use Oracle OO4O for database communication. I
can get Oracle 817 and 920 clients to work on my wine, but so far any of my
attempts to get the Custom VB app to run do not work, generating run time error
#5 that it couldn't get a valid Oracle connection going.

Has any gotten a VB app to connect to Oracle on Wine?

Thanks.
