--- Comment #13 from Chris McRaven cpmcraven@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.
