The cut and paste inside of PowerPoint 2003 or from Excel 2003 to PowerPoint 2003 does not work. POSSIBLE BUG FIX: I was able to cut and paste by overriding some libraries. My fix is as follows: * Open winecfg * Click `Add application' in `Application settings' * Browse to and select POWERPNT.EXE * Subsequently select POWERPNT.EXE and then click the `Libraries' tab * Add the following overrides: gdiplus, ole32, riched20, rpcrt4 * Click `Apply' Following these steps is important as Excel 2003 fails to run with these overrides enabled. They should only be enabled for PowerPoint 2003. This fix also allowed me to cut and paste between Excel 2003 and PowerPoint 2003 and between Word 2003 and PowerPoint 2003. I have not tested all features yet, but so far it seems to be working well. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15401 --- Comment #13 from Chris McRaven <cpmcraven(a)ou.edu> 2009-01-28 13:07:55 --- Alright, I've good news and bad news. The good news first: In order to get powerpoint 2003 to copy/paste you need the ole32.dll and rpcrt4.dll that are install with DCOM98. You can use winetricks to install this. Installing DCOM98 along with the overrides I described above will allow you to copy/paste. Now for the bad news: These overrides cause powerpoint 2003 to NOT be able to save new files. If you start a new powerpoint, you cannot save it. I have been able to edit and save *existing* powerpoints, but only by invoking them from the command line! Even so, powerpoint 2003 seemed to get confused after a time and not be able to save again. In summary, you can get powerpoint 2003 to copy/paste, but you have to pay a price. I do not recommend this workaround. You can lose alot of work. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Right? If that's the case, I think we can mark this as an ole32 bug.

I'm not sure all of the blame can be pointed at ole32 as rpcrt4 needs also to participate in order for powerpoint 2003 to talk to the clipboard. The oleaut32 override that winetricks performs when you install dcom98 does not seem to effect the copy/paste or save behavior. The file dialog has no problem coming up, it just fails with a dialog that says "There was an error accessing $file." Where $file is the full path of the filename I tried to save to. I'm not a hacker, so I can't say where the problem lies exactly. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

The wine version i am using is 1.1.15. I have MS OFFICE 2007 installed with wine. I tried by adding all the suggested overrides. But still the problem persists. (In reply to comment #7)
