[Wine]Re: wine-20050111 - missing MSVCR71.dll

[Mark Knecht]

Mike,
   Thanks for the background. It's interesting.

   I got the dll file. I didn't know where toplace it so I placed it
in the directory that the app was in and it works fine. Is there a
more general purpose place I should be putting these? C:\system or
system32?

Thanks,
Mark
