I can *not* confirm that. I could install Office 2000 with Outlook with
WineTools with every version of Wine since 200409xx and never had
problems.

I can *not* confirm that also! I just tried it with the WineTools
installation using Wine 20041019 and exactly the process you describing
works very well. I must admit that it crashes often. Did you try to get
to the menus via the shortcuts (e.g. ALT+F for the File menu)?
