[Wine] Re: WARNING - WINE DOESN'T WORK WITH OFFICE 2003

Hi,

How are you launching outlook and word?

The "console" that everyone is referring to is like the command prompt in Windows. You can launch it from Ubuntu by selecting the Applications => Accessories => Terminal (see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal).

The terminal output is whatever is printed there.

If you don't understand how to launch Outlook from there, the easiest thing to do is run

    wine winefile 2>&1 > output.log

This will give you an application like explorer that you can use to navigate to the office folder and double click on outlook as normal. The bit from the 2 redirects the output from the terminal to output.log - you can then attach this file. This is what everyone was telling you when they were pointing you to the FAQ.

You can also look on the Wine AppDB to see if that has your problems.

HTH,
- Reece
