--- Comment #21 from Anastasius Focht <focht at gmx.net> ---
Hello folks,

refining the summary to provide the workaround similar to MFC related tickets:

https://bugs.winehq.org/buglist.cgi?bug_status=UNCONFIRMED&bug_status=NEW&bug_status=ASSIGNED&bug_status=STAGED&bug_status=REOPENED&bug_status=RESOLVED&list_id=460727&query_format=advanced&short_desc=MFC%20workaround&short_desc_type=allwordssubstr

The implementation part ... to quote myself from various MFC tickets:

--- quote ---
Implementing MFC requires lots of effort which would drain the already limited
developer resources available to the Wine project - with little to no benefit.
MFC will be long dead when this effort reaches a usable state (if ever).
--- quote ---

Same applies for Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0 Runtime.

Regards
