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 thanks -mike _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
