Check by running with -debugmsg +loaddll if you succeeded -
it's not so obvious if you don't know the innards of Wine :-/

Hmm. I don't know. I would be surprised if they did it
with Office 97 (you don't say which version of Office - AFAIK
Office 2000 needs a fair amount of 'native' dlls)
There is always the usuall fallback - say to run with
-debugmsg +relay,+file,+dosfs and see what happens
when you try to save a file - maybe you will find that it's
trying to file on a read-only partition ;-)
