Ivan,
    I got Wine 20040505 from CVS to install Office 2000. The 
installation went fine but none of the apps work correctly. They all 
crash. This is a Linux only Wine installation. I don't really know how 
to do a Wine with Windows instalation. I guess I'll read about that one 
of these days if I get some time.

    I think this isn't going to work for what I wanted to do. (The audio 
app that needs Direct X and IE.)

    Thanks very, very much for all your help. I do appreciate it. I'll 
keep poking around but I'm not going to spend much more time on this. 
Using real Windows is so much easier.

Cheers,
Mark
