After using winetricks to install mdac, vb runtimes, and c runtimes (not sure
which the app was written in), I'm still getting "Active X control
cannot create object".
The application requires several things, so I'm not sure where it's
failing. First, the user has to be mapped to a specific network share, which
I've done via samba and then drive mapped in Wine. Next, the application
itself authenticates to the SQL Server; the user merely logs into a gui to get
it's permissions from the app, which the app passes to SQL Server. Come to
think of it, that login gui must be what's failing. After all the ActiveX
errors, I get the main form of the app (totally non-functional), but the login
screen never appears.
