New page

As of this writing, [[MS Office 97 Pro]] fails to install completely under [[WINE]], and [[MS Access 97]] won't run after the install (although the other Office components seem to run with some degree of success).

==Symptoms==
* [[MS Office 97 Pro]] installation: near the end of the installation, a dialog pops up saying "Accwiz.dll was unable to register itself in the system registry." ([[:Image:2007-03-10 WINE and MS Office 97.crop.png|screenshot of the dialog]])
** [http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3689 WINE bug tracker] showing status of this bug: apparently they consider it fixed.
* [[MS Access 97]]: won't run after the failed install; claims that you don't have a license to run it.
** [http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?iVersionId=335 WINE bug tracker] showing status: they say it runs just fine. (Is that after the installer succeeds, or with the failure as above?)
==Possible Fixes==
* Try copying [[RegSvr32]].exe over to WINE's c:\windows\system folder, and run the install again (maybe the installer is trying to run it)
* If that fails, try running [[RegSvr32]].exe directly from a DOS prompt to register Accwiz.dll (maybe it will give a helpful error message)
