I have just got word 97 working with wine. The key to it was using winetools. The versions I have used are: winetools - 2.1.1-jo wine - 20050111 Both were installed from rpm files onto my Fedora Core 2, Althlon 1.2 GHz, 256 MByte, xorg 6.7.0-14, GForce2, Nvidia driver version 6629. I went through all of the steps in the basic setup menu. But had to get the fonts from elsewhere - the site winetools tries to use timed out, but do a search for the windows core fonts and you'll find them all. Download the font .exe files into the ~/winetools/fonts directory. I hope this helps anyone struggling with this. Rob Send instant messages to your online friends http://uk.messenger.yahoo.com
Rob, Can you forward the dll config override section from your ~/.wine/config file please? Thanks, Dan Hairysocks wrote:>I have just got word 97 working with wine. The key to it was >using winetools.
