Version 10 and earlier won't install. There was a problem when I last tried installing X3, I can't remember what it was, but perhaps that has changed since I last tried, I haven't checked for some time now. Quattro Pro does not work (a pity) and Presentations for the little I have tried it, does. (Quattro Pro has worked a few versions of wine ago, but not at present) WordPerfect has a few quirks (I don't file bug reports any more, because nobody ever attends to them), but once you have made your peace with that. you'll find it works as intended and is stable enough to commit your work to it - I do and I have not had any mishap yet. There are a few things that do not work, like macros, but for me it's not critical. Be warned, there are a few hoops to jump when you start the software and how you set it up, but once it's loaded it will work. Good luck -- Regards, Lex. _______________________________________________ wine-users mailing list wine-users@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.winehq.org/mailman/listinfo/wine-users
