Writers blocks is a piece of software that only really does one thing... displays OLE text boxes. An earlier version installed and ran on an earlier wine. This one does not.
Directions to reproduce: Download free trial
sh winetricks vb6run mfc40 (I also install gdiplus and fontfix)
also tried with the following sh winetricks mfc42 vcrun2003 vcrun2005 vcrun2005sp1 vcrun2008 vcrun2008sp1 just to make sure that the author wasn't using updated libs, but he's not.
The earlier winebug on the earlier WritersBlocks was bug 1542

An earlier version installed and ran on an earlier wine.
Is it possible to download the earlier version and see whether it works on a recent wine?

--- Comment #2 from Susan Cragin susancragin@earthlink.net 2009-08-04 08:03:29 --- The rash of git updates on Mon 8/4 improved the crash problem dramatically. Now the program loads properly and works for long enough to be useable. (Then it freezes or crashes with the error message described above.) I never got that far testing the earlier version because I couldn't get the font to display properly. The crash may or may not have happened. I'll test if possible. The earlier version is no longer download-able, but I may have a complete copy of it somewhere, or I may be able to get a version from the developer.

--- Comment #3 from Bruno Jesus 00cpxxx@gmail.com --- "winetricks vb6run mfc40 mfc42" required to install and run.
I don't know how to reproduce the error reliably but hitting many keyboard keys while pressing TAB (to change current text box) makes the program crash with an Overflow error.

--- Comment #4 from Susan Cragin susancragin@gmail.com --- I have just tried this piece of software again to see if the OLE textbox error was still there, and it is. (I tried to run it this time with no additional windows components, since I thought that problems displaying OLE text boxes might have been fixed.)

That's clearly a mono (mscoree) bug, don't know if its already fixed. Usually winetricks -q dotnet20 or dotnet40 helps.
