Problems with Autoroute Express 2003

[Roger]

With respect to install issues, as a general rule, I start with a fresh,
known functional wine install (latest version usually) with a fake win dir.
Then I install msi (InstalMsiA.exe) and then install the application of
interest.  It usually works thru install.  App functionality will based on
watching wine(dbg) feedback in a console to find out if native or builtin
dll's are best (somewhat trial and error) and if any API's are called that
are not yet fully implemented.

Hope this helps
