           Summary: Installer dies in OLE with failure to convert to
                    VT_VARIANT from VT_BSTR
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.7.
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-ole
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org
        ReportedBy: flerchjj(a)ieee.org


The installer for "The SpongeBob Squarepants Movie" game dies at the point where
it should begin copying files and gives the error below.

err:ole:ITypeInfo_fnInvoke failed to convert param 0 to VT_VARIANT from VT_BSTR

The installer does work for Wine 0.9.2 and 0.9.3 (although the game was only
semi-playable with 0.9.2).

This is the full standard output:
