My research indicates that it is possible to run Excel 97 with standard wine using a real FAT Windows partition. So far, drawing heavily on http://www.winecentric.com/ I've been unable to get it to work. I'm running the 20020904 version, and have mutilated my wine config nearly beyond repair in an attempt to get excel to run. I've tried running all native dlls, all builtin, etc, and no matter what I do, it hangs shortly after putting up the window and must be killed with a -s 9. I've run it with -debugmsgs +modules and don't get any error messages, it just hangs irrevocably. Is this known behaviour that is, hopefully, easy to fix? I currently run Lotus Notes and a few other apps with wine, so I know it works in general. I can get simple apps to work with my experimental Excel setup, like calc.exe, notepad.exe, wordpad.exe, etc. Thanks so much for your time.
