On this page http://appdb.winehq.com/appview.php?appId=11 the rating for excel xp isn't good at all, I think your only hope is probably crossover office, it runs office xp out of the box, but it isn't free. Openoffice may be a solution for you, it comes with most linux distros and is compatible with office xp, also see http://www.openoffice.org Ivan. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.com/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
