           Summary: Cannot insert pictures from file due to rapid folder
                    switching in Office 2007
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.0-rc1
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: zachary at stewarts.net


In all currently working Office 2007 apps (Word, PowerPoint, Publisher, Excel),
choosing Insert and then clicking the Insert Picture button causes the file
chooser dialog to open. When it opens, the folder that it is supposed to look
in switches back and forth between My Documents and Desktop, or whatever the
last two chosen folders were. The switching never ends, and because of the
switching, no file is displayed. Manually typing the name of the file will not
allow it to be inserted, even if it exists in both folders.

Interestingly enough, this switching occurs only when the cursor is above the
Word (or Publisher, or PowerPoint, or whatever) window, and it switches faster
the faster the cursor moves. If the mouse is hovered above another window, say
a console window, the switching stops. No files are viewable, however.

It appears as though every switch, it throws the following error:

fixme:shell:SHGetFileInfoW SHGFI_OVERLAYINDEX unhandled

This bug is bad for Word, but in my opinion cripples Publisher and PowerPoint.
