Hi, I've been working on getting the application WeatherScope working under Wine. http://sdg.ocs.ou.edu/builds/final/win/WeatherScope/WeatherScope-1.2.1.exe (Free for educational and non-commercial use) With a little help from Rein Klazes, I've gotten the application running. The program is usable, but it has some pretty major warts, at least under Wine 20050310. The biggest one is with a popup window that allows you to change the date and time for the data you are looking at (which is accessed by right clicking on the date/time and selecting date). Under Windows, this window has one box with the date and one with the time, and each box has an up and down arrow for incrementing the various numbers in the date and time. Under wine, both boxes have the time, there is no date shown anywhere. Also the arrows are not present, but when you click in the area where they should be, you get a popup allowing you to select a date from a calendar. Unfortunately, you get this calendar for both the date and time boxes. Screenshots from windows and linux are attached. Any one have any ideas where to start trying to debug this?

Copy one from a windows installation, to wine's windows\system directory and run wine like: WINEDLLOVERRIDES=comctl32=n wine ... BTW, since this makes a good test case for the DTP control, an entry in wine's bugzilla (http://bugs.winhq.org) would make sense. Rein. -- Rein Klazes rklazes@xs4all.nl
