Hi, I'm currently running Wine-20040505. Quicken 2004 Premier Edition runs very well on this version except for reports. There are some reports that display jsut fine and other that don't display at all. Ant transaction summary report that I do causes Quicken and the report window to minimize. When I maximize them by hand the report window appears to be all black and I cannot close it. I have to quit Quicken. I know this report thing has been out there for at least 2-3 years as a problem. I'm wondering if I just missed some configuration trick to get this to actually work. I need some reports desperately for tax reasons and if I cannot get it working it means back to Windows. Please help me out to save me from that fate. Thanks, Mark

Up until recently I'd tried with about every increment available under FC2, and I can never get the install program to run. Cheers, Gordon Keehn
I do. I run Quicken 2000 under Crossover. I maintain my local Scout Group Accounts on it. I haven't (yet) run into the problem described. I tried Kapital but never really succeeded. I could start from scratch with, say, GNUcash but I would either throw away the history or reenter all the transactions. Also I have to consider that when they throw me out as treasurer the person who takes over will probably be a Windows user who would be quite pleased at the choice of Quicken.
