The bug report seems to be solved, and I've read about lots of people running
office2k installer, it first worked with wine-20020411, and  if this has been
broken, it should be considered a regression. Also, you can't just copy
ole32.dll to the fake c:\windows\system, you must set it to run native, run wine
with no arguments to get the list of options, one allows you to specify which
dlls must be used as native. Also on this appdb page quite a few people report
about sucessfully running the offices 2k setup in wine without windows

If this is broken in current wine, you can install office with an old version of
wine, then upgrade to wine current (That will probably run office better).
