http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31618 Bug #: 31618 Summary: Unable to run an old VB5 app Product: Wine Version: unspecified Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: ole32 AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: rhon(a)free.fr Classification: Unclassified Created attachment 41577 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=41577 First error message I had I'm using wine 1.5.11 on Archlinux, and I try to launch this old game : http://www.cnetfrance.fr/telecharger/waterboy-11006056s.htm?download=1 The problem is that I always get a "Run-time error '13' : Type mismatch" when I try to launch it. I've tried to switch oleaut.dll and ole32.dll to "native" (I used dll copied from an up to date Win XP install), and switch to "Windows 98" mode using winecfg, and then I had the error1 attached. I've installed vb5runtime, vb6run, mfc40 and mfc42 using winetricks, but it didn't help, I now have a window popup with message "System error &H80070078" and console output shows the messages in error2 attached file. -- 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.

I debugged that garbage and this string gets really passed through VB runtime. MSDN: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa913152.aspx I think Wine does the right thing in this case by returning DISP_E_TYPEMISMATCH which ultimately leads to that runtime error.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=31618 --- Comment #6 from Anastasius Focht <focht(a)gmx.net> --- Hello Bruno, --- quote --- The game instantly fails in win XP with error 13, type mismatch. Time to platform dependent code? --- quote --- Thanks for testing. --- quote --- It does not work with xp "compatibility mode" to win95 either. --- quote --- For "compatibility mode" to be effective the application/game must be listed in the application shim database (= problem officially recognized by Microsoft) so one or multiple shims "hacks" can be applied at runtime. This game probably never gained any significant popularity hence the breakage on modern Windows OS was never brought to Microsoft's attention. This code probably only works by pure luck on older systems, relying on broken/undocumented API behaviour (the executable is dated 2000). I could probably dig deeper here and patch the application itself (it's native code, no VB PCode), but personally I think that would be a waste of time. IMHO 'invalid' or 'wontfix'.

I just tested it in Windows 95 and 98, result: does not work. Same type mismatch error. I looked for other versions of the game but all sites distribute the same file. My guess is that it worked inside VB5 (debug) and the author didn't care to test after compiling. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

So in English "1,000" is handled the same as "100,0" or even ",10,,00", etc. See where this is going? In French, when parsed with NUMPRS_THOUSANDS, " 10 6" is identical to "106". (and in English ",10,6" == "106") I will send a patch shortly. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
