this managed to happen but it might be the problem i tried to just install it
like the guide said...)  . I'm running Ubuntu 8.10 when i get to the point

I have no idea what that guide says, but Office 2007 should install in 1.1.9
without any special tweaks or overrides. Try installing to a clean wineprefix
(no overrides, nothing else installed).  If you still run into problems, post
console output.
