Hi Benjamin! BS>Thanks for your tip about launching Word by going to the Office BS>directory and type from within the directory: BS> BS>wine WINWORD.EXE You're welcome :-) BS>All that's left is to figure out how to save and load files from BS>within Word. Normally, that should be simply a matter of calling the appropriate men= u entries. But as I wrote in the newsgroup earlier, there's some problem = with saving files. I didn't test much, but when trying to save "test.doc", entering letters in the file selector was messy (letters would appear o= nly after every second typed in char), and the file created had a name that= was truncated to the "t" at the beginning. BS>http://www.websher.net/tmp/word1.png Umm... that doesn't exactly look like a file permission thinggy, but wo= rd is somehow trying to access a non-existant folder "Sonnet29" instead of sa= ving a file with that name. Can't help you with that, sorry :-( Just one thought: Do you have write permissions to E: at all? Assuming E: is a windows partition, some Linux variants will by default allow read access only. Don't know about your Linux variant, though. BS>htpp://www.websher.net/tmp/word2.png This doesn't help at all, as it doesn't state _where_ e:\ is. It's Linu= x, so there are no drive letters at all, and e: is linked somewhere to your f= ile system.
