Access 2000 on wine

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello,

About a month ago asked the community how I could run Office 2000,
includin Access 2000, under wine. The answer was disappointing.

On trial and error bases found a solution working on my computer.

1. Installed the latest wine package.
2. Following the guides found on http://frankscorner.org installed IE
6.0 SP1 (wine was emulating win98)
3. Changed the wine config file to emulate win2k
4. On Office2000 setup disk installed msi 
5. Installed O2000 (all Word, Excel and Powerpoint options) according to
the instructions of frankscorner.org
6. backed up the windows directory and ./wine files (in case something
happens...:-)
7. Installed all the Access options. this gave me only one error message
seemed to be harmless.

I checked out with using huge, sophisticated database files, forms and
worked without errors. 

Hope you can also make it work.
