We did? Heh, I wish it was that easy! 

Nope, the only thing CodeWeavers has paid for (I work for them) is a
license from Apple for font hinting.

The reason InstallShield works out of the box in CrossOver is
mostly because:

a) we ship a mini stdole32.tlb file by default. You can steal this file
from a Windows box if you like. Drop it in your fake c:\windows\system
directory, and InstallShield should now at least start up and run.

b) we pull in native DCOM for a lot of things. You can install that in
stock Wine like this:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES='ole32=n' wine DCOM95.EXE

then, run InstallShields like this:

WINEDLLOVERRIDES='ole32,oleaut32,rpcrt4=n' wine setup.exe
