I do have the source - the code shouldn't be trying to convert the ANSI string
Hello! to an integer, instead it should be converting a Unicode (UTF-16LE)
string "Hello!" to an ANSI string and store it in a byte array. The VB code
looks like this:

Dim la_Bytes() As Byte  ' Byte array

la_Bytes = StrConv("Hello!", vbFromUnicode)   ' Convert from a Unicode string
to an ANSI string and store it in a byte array.

One thing that I've found is that for VB apps under Wine it's almost always
required to use the Native OLEAUT32.dll. If you install the VB6 runtime with
"winetricks -q vb6run" that will install the native OLEAUT32.dll. You can then
use the native override for that DLL and it might fix the problem.
