Summary: Problems with Office 97 and "Normal.dot"
Product: Wine
Version: 0.9.24.
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: wine-files
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: Ronny.Standtke at gmx.net
I installed a German MS Office 97 with wine-0.9.24.
When I start Office 97 the second time it complains about not being able to
read the file Normal.dot. The complete error message is as follows:
-----------
Word konnte diese Datei (Normal.dot) nicht lesen. Bitte stellen Sie die
Netzwerkverbindung wieder her, oder ersetzen Sie die Disketten und versuchen
Sie es erneut.
|Wiederholen| |Abbrechen|
-----------
My poor translation to English:
-----------
Word could not read this file (Normal.dot). Please re-enable the network
connection or replace the floppies and retry.
|Retry| |Cancel|
-----------
Clicking "Retry" doesn't help; the dialog always reappears. After
clicking "Cancel" Word presents another but somehow incomplete warning dialog:
-----------
Word kann vorhandene "[]
|OK|
-----------
In English that means something like "Word can existing...". I will attach a
screenshot.
When I want to exit Word I get another warning message:
-----------
Soll die bereits existierende Datei Normal.dot ersetzt werden?
|Ja| |Nein| |Abbrechen|
-----------
Translation:
-----------
Do you want to overwrite the existing file Normal.dot?
|Yes| |No| |Cancel|
-----------
If I choose "No" a FileSave dialog opens. If I close this FileSave dialog I am
back in Word.
If I try to exit Word again I get a _another_different_ warning message:
-----------
Die durchgeführten Änderungen haben Auswirkungen auf die Dokumentenvorlage
Normal.dot. Möchten Sie diese Änderungen speichern?
|Ja| |Nein| |Abbrechen|
-----------
My translation:
-----------
The changes have impact on the template Normal.dot. Do you want to save this
changes?
|Yes| |No| |Cancel|
-----------
Only after choosing "No" I finally managed to exit Word.
Looking at the file does not show any specialities:
-rw-r--r-- 1 ronny ronny 30208 2006-10-29 21:32 ./drive_c/Programme/Microsoft
Office/Vorlagen/Normal.dot
This is a regression. The problem doesn't exist with wine-0.9.20 but in all
following versions (tested until wine-0.9.24)
