           Summary: Wall Street Advisor 1.27 won't start / Windows Script
                    Control install problem?

mentions that this app doesn't work on wine, so I gave it a shot.

With wine from git as of 6 Feb:

Running 
$ wine Wall\ Street\ Analyzer.exe 
yields the suspcious looking error
  err:ole:get_inproc_class_object couldn't load in-process dll
L"C:\\windows\\temp\\IXP000.TMP\\'C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Windows
Script\\Windows Script Control'\\msscript.ocx"
err:ole:create_server class {0e59f1d5-1fbe-11d0-8ff2-00a0d10038bc} not registered

The app seems to want mfc42 and wsh installed, so
I installed those first, and while it reduced warnings
in the installer, it doesn't prevent the problem.

grep ocx ~/.wine/*.reg shows lines like
@="C:\\windows\\temp\\IXP000.TMP\\'C:\\Program Files\\Microsoft Windows
Script\\Windows Script Control'\\msscript.ocx"

The file msscript.ocx does not seem to be installed, even though
the installer ran the subinstaller for Windows Script Control
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=d7e31492-2595-49e6-8c02-1426fec693ac&DisplayLang=en

So that subinstaller seems to both fail to install the control,
and puts the wrong path into the registry.

(Note: the app worked a while ago in crossover, see
