wine users - Apr 2010 - MS Office 2007 apps lose focus when hovering over sub menus?

Whenever I hover over a submenu in Word, PowerPoint or Excel 2007, it loses its
focus. The menu just disappears. Look at this video (ignore the last bit where I
click on Symbol as I've always had an issue with that) :

Here's a counsel output when I hover over shapes until the menu disappears:

Code:
 wine winword.exe

I get all the fixmes in your console output, and selecting submenu items works
fine for me.  However, your console output is missing some fixmes that I do get,
for psdrv and mscorree.

Mscoree is part of .NET, and the fact hat you're not getting the fixme for
it suggests that you installed dotnet20, and possibly some other unnecessary
things, with winetricks.

If that's the case, reinstall to a clean wineprefis, with no winetricks or
any other tweaks. Just run the installer, as the AppDB instructs. After
installing, apply only the tweaks listed in the AppDB.  Dotnet is not one of
them.

If that's not the case, then I don't know what the problem is. Possibly
a graphics driver issue.

Ah... You see this only started happening after upgrading to WINE 1.1.40 and
also in 1.1.41. This never happened in 1.1.39 and under...

bp96:  You do not have to do a clean install if all you want to do is
get Office 2007 fixed or just to find out if there is a problem with
using winetricks:

Open a terminal window session.
[code]

export WINEPREFIX=$HOME/OFFICE2007TEST
[/code]

put in the Office 2007 installation DVD
[code]
cd /media/cdrom
wine setup.exe
[/code]

Follow all of the installation instructions.

Then you can use the new Office 2007 items.  They should work better....

If this does NOT help, read the FAQ on creating and using a Wineprefix.

Thanks for all the help, but I've installed WINE 1.1.42. After I did that, I
opened up Word, it said something like 'Wine configuring.' After it did
that, Word opened up and now this issue got fixed and so did my other issue of
pictures nudging when they are moved! After that I tried PowerPoint and Excel-
and they worked fine!  [Laughing]  :D  This is my new counsel ouput:
