           Summary: Simply Invoice aborts with "System.Exception: Cannot

A Linux user mentioned in
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=7282541
that he wanted a package like "Simply Invoice"
http://www.simplyinvoice.co.uk/
for till management, but that he didn't want to
run "Simply Invoice" under Wine.  (Presumably
because it wouldn't work well.)  So I gave it a shot.

The installer first tried to install .net 2.  That
didn't go so well, so I did "winetricks dotnet20".
Then it aborted with a "invoked runtime incorrectly" dialog,
so I did "winetricks vcrun2005".  That failed because
some boot time thing was unhappy, so I wiped .wine,
did "winetricks vcrun2005 dotnet20", and reinstalled the
app.  That did the trick.  The app now installs and 
starts up.  However, when you try to log in to the trial
database, it complains it can't create an activex component,
and doesn't work after that.
