In cases where an emulated virtual environment provides poor performance a native dll can be added to improve performance. John

In my experience, they don't usually run on Linux Mono.Kevin: I have several .NET programs that DO work with MONO. The problem is if you have to access a database in the program. I have a program that uses the Jet 4.0 (Access) engine to access data. This program WILL NOT work on my Mac, but may work on in Linux. Since I don't have the resources to confirm this, I will state that some .NET programs will work with MONO, but you may have problems getting Mono to work with Wine. I feel that implementation of .NET within Wine is a goal that the developers should be moving towards or at a minimum, .NET should be installable under Wine. Sorry, but Mono does not and will not play well with Wine. James
