	Hello all.

	I just recently started using Linux as my primary OS and have just
started playing with Wine in order to help ease the transition (so I can
still use Word a few other apps).
	I'm having trouble installing Office 2000, and I was hoping someone
could help out.  I've read around, Frank's World included, and have
limited success getting things to work.
	First I tried Frank's suggestion using the Portage Wine version in
Gentoo (200401??).  The install created errors at about 85%, but the
applications ran alright.  I was most happy.
	Now, however, I am trying to get Office 2000 to work with WineX 3.3.1.
~ Instead of crashing at 85% (roughly), it just hangs.  If I abort the
install, the programs don't work.
	I know this isn't exactly the right place for WineX questions, but
since the two problems appear to be at least slightly related I was
hoping someone might have some insight they could share.

	Thanks for any help!
