[Wine] How Do I Get Windows Apps To Open With Correct WINEPREFIX
I'm having difficulty finding a solution to this problem. I installed Office 2007 to a different WINEPREFIX (export WINEPREFIX=~/.office2007). However, when I right click on... oh let's say a .doc file and click Open With Microsoft Word it creates the the default ~/.wine directory and tries to open the .doc from that directory but obviously there are not any Office 2007 apps installed in that WINEPREFIX. How can I set all related Office 2007 file extensions to open from the ~/.office2007 directory? Any help is always greatly appreciated.

It had been six days and no replies. You have to admit, "bumping" my post did work as I received two replies in less than 24 hours.
