All you have to do is run winecfg and select riched20 from the drop-down list on the Libraries tab. As I said, there's nothing to actually install. > I'll try this re your comments Bug 11415 and James' comments, comments: > cd "/media/Office 2003 Pro/OFFICE";\ > # Set your preferences > WINEPREFIX=~/.MSOffice winecfg;\ > # Click through the dialogues > WINEPREFIX=~/.MSOffice winetricks vb6run riched20 dcom98 gecko;\ > touch ~/.MSOffice/drive_c/windows/system32/stdole2.tlb;\ > # Enter Pass-Key > WINEPREFIX=~/.MSOffice wine SETUP.EXE;\ > done > > If touch ~/.MSOffice/drive_c/windows/system32/stdole2.tlb isn't > sufficient, where can I find a real one?
