wine users - Jun 2004 - winword on win2k and ntfs ??

Hello all,

I try to start up a word session (or, in general: some M$ Office program).

My profile is under C:\Documents and Settings\(username) , so I added that
one as "Profile"

However, wine tries to write under the WINNT directory. This is not possible
because I use WIN2K is installed on an NTFS partition.

Can someone help me further on this one?? (I created my config file with
winesetuptk v0.73)

Kind regards,

Jan

well...i think you should install MS Office on your
fake_windows directory ( maybe you need to install
DCOM98.exe first --- if you don't have any, googled
for it or try in sourceforge.net ).
- wine DCOM98/install.exe
- wine OFFICE2000/setup.exe
Launch it by:
- wine yourfake_windowsdir/Program\
Files/Microsoft/Office/whatever.exe
