wine users - May 2004 - wine app cannot open 'c' drive ??

All,

The app is MSWord; I am trying to open 'C' and MSWord/Wine reports a 
violation on attempting to open the dir. Other apps can read the 
directory. Where or how does Wine read privileges??

Thanks,
Dan

But can other applications write to the directory? It looks to me from 
another post that you might be using a real Windows partition, so the 
permissions are determined by /etc/fstab. In general, unless required 
for some specific reason, you are probably better off with a "fake" 
partition, and copying over any desired DLLs and fonts.
