Look here for Office 2000 or Office 97: http://frankscorner.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=Sections&file=index&req=listarticles&secid=3 And notice that you need to take wine-20031212 or perhaps older versions. All never versions until now have drawbacks that make them unusable with the famous apps you want to use. I use very successful - Office 2000 (with all apps) - Notes - IE6 and many games and other apps with wine-20031212. Regards Joachim -- "Never touch a running system! Never run a touching system?
