MS Office problems

[Dan Sawyer]

Tim,

I have been seeking the same objective for quite some time. I have had 
better luck however then you. Let's create a mini-thread on this topic 
here and see if we can't get some momentum going.

If you forward me your config and wine build history I will exchange 
mine. Perhaps we can at least get to the same block. I have attached my 
e-mail address below.

Again, I sugget we use this board to report status only, etc so we numb 
potenetial support into comas.
