wine users - Apr 2008 - Re: Problems on recent versions of Wine - MS Office 2000 and Sho

The AppDB thread
http://appdb.winehq.org/commentview.php?iAppId=31&iVersionId=5124&iThreadId=32046
contains some information which relates to this problem - it will be updated as
I make progress with the problems.

Note that there is a Microsoft KB article -
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/298829/en-us - which describes exactly this
problem and the cause is incorrect or missing registry entries.

I can confirm that recent versions of Wine do not create the registry entries
described in this knowledge-base article - the built-in misexec will only create
Windows 95/98/ME-type registry entries irrespective of the Wine configuration.
