[Wine] Could not load 'SOUND.DLL' required by 'sierrawh', error=2

Sorry Jeff/Ulisses - I've been sending my replies off-list...

At any rate, no change so far - even after doing the stuff mentioned
below, I still get error #21:

Could not load 'SOUND.DLL' required by 'sierrawh', error=21

Since I can't register the copy of sound.dll that I have with regsvr32,
I'm thinking that I have the wrong one - none of my WinXP or Win98
machines have it, so I'm wondering if anyone knows a good place to find
a working version...?

Thanks again,
Mike
