well...i think you should install MS Office on your
fake_windows directory ( maybe you need to install
DCOM98.exe first --- if you don't have any, googled
for it or try in sourceforge.net ).
- wine DCOM98/install.exe
- wine OFFICE2000/setup.exe
Launch it by:
- wine yourfake_windowsdir/Program\
Files/Microsoft/Office/whatever.exe 
>From my experience, launcing MS Office applications
that's installed directly under windblows = never
works.
Please conside not to use Office XP for the same
reason. Try out MS Office 2000.
Hope this works.

cheers,

welly
