[Wine]Problem

[Kuldeep Singh Tomar]

Hi Joachim,

Thanks for the response. New windows is working fine for me. But combo 
box are still not working. How have you installed IE. I had used Frank 
Corner method given on gentoo site .

Please let me know if you have used any other method for installation of 
IE on linux.

Thanks again.
