[Wine] Problems on recent versions of Wine - MS Office 2000 and Shockwave

[Phil Reynolds]

I don't make that much use of Wine but do sometimes need real MS Word,
and sometimes like to play some of the games on the shockwave.com site.
However, there have been a number of upgrades recently to Wine and these
have now stopped working with the following symptoms:

Office:

Running applications from an existing install says "This application must
be installed to run. Please run Setup from the location where you
originally installed the application." - also a fresh install fails as
stated in another thread.

Shockwave:

Calling up www.adobe.com/shockwave/welcome in Firefox works, but if I
try to access a game from the site, the logo appears with the message
that Shockwave Player is now installing, but it does not proceed any
further. This is with the latest Shockwave and has also been tested on a
fresh install.

Everything else I do with Wine is working at the moment.
