Dear friends: Thanks to Ekkehard, I found out how to launch Word97. I went to the .wine/drive_c directory and then (using quotes around "Program Files" and "Microsoft Office") I cd's to where Winword.exe was and then typed, within this subdirectory: wine WINWORD.EXE. That launched Word97 at last. But when I try to save a document, all I get is the first letter of the file name. When I try to save, Word refuses to do so. Please see error messages: http://www.websher.net/tmp/word1.png http://www.websher.net/tmp/word2.png Plus the data files: http://www.websher.net/tmp/user.reg http://www.websher.net/tmp/userdef.reg http://www.websher.net/tmp/system.reg I would be most grateful for your kind help.
