In theory you should not need to use "desktop" so it is a bug. Also I noted that you are not using the latest version of wine. It is possible that the newest version does not have this problem. so upgrading to wine 20021219 would be advisable before submitting a bug.
As far as the password box not showing up it might help if you modified your ~/.wine/config file so that the app defaults for quicken used desktop mode insted of manage. Section 4.1.2.12 of the following link explains how to do this http://www.winehq.com/Docs/wine-user/configuring.shtml
I triage the bugzilla database and I do not recall seeing this bug regarding quicken so I think it would be safe to submit it.
Tony, Indeed, desktop mode did solve the password box issue. Now I wonder if I should enter the bug?
Yeah... AFAIK it is the most complicated project out there. To me it makes Mozilla look like a text editor. The real problems is that there are thousands (millions??) of programs out there and there is no way that the developers can have access to all of them.
I'll have to do more study to understand what the difference in these
modes are. Wine is very powerful, but very complicated too!
Right now the the current goal is 0.9 and one of the criteria for this is to get a certain number of applications working flawlessly (as possible) The more popular a program is the more likely it is to be considerd for this list. Quicken is a fairly popular program and therefore it is likely to have a fairly high priority to get it to work properly. Good bug reports can help a lot.
