But even with 20041019, Outlook doesn't completely work. The menus are playing well but only on the main window, File, Print etc.. If I edit a contact, the menus are no more working (I can't print this contact, I can't save the modified contact, etc.). Any idea of what is wrong? I also got a similar problem with a statistical software. Both problems are solved with CrossOver. But CrossOver is not a GPL solution as far I know. PS: I need Outlook, not for reading mails (Evolution is here) but to print contacts in a nice way and also to get back contacts which I lost with Evolution while syncing from my Palm (a Palm handles only a limited number of categories) and upgrading Evolution.

I could install Office 2000 with Outlook with WineTools with every version of Wine since 200409xx and never had problems.> But even with 20041019, Outlook doesn't completely work.

I just tried it with the WineTools installation using Wine 20041019 and exactly the process you describing works very well. I must admit that it crashes often. Did you try to get to the menus via the shortcuts (e.g. ALT+F for the File menu)? Regards Joachim -- "Never touch a running system! Never run a touching system? Never run a touchy system!!!"
