Bug ID: 42207 Summary: TaxAct 2016 Downloaded Version -- Import not working Product: Wine Version: 2.0-rc2 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: c319chris@aol.com Distribution: Mint
Program installs and runs OK but does not import previous year's tax return. Had to install TaxAct under Windows to import last year's return, then saved the new return. I was then able to open the saved return under Wine.
Wine 2.0-rc2 staging under Linux Mint 18.1.
TaxAct 2016 downloaded "Plus" version

--- Comment #2 from Fabian Maurer dark.shadow4@web.de --- Can the problem be reproduced with a free version? If so, could you link the download?
What does "not working" mean exactly, does it give you an error or what exactly happens?

According to the TaxAct web site, it appears that the free version will import returns for a charge of $5. I have not tried it myself with the free version, but I can donate this amount to the Wine project to facilitate work on this bug. Or, I can donate $50 which would cover the cost of the "Plus" version which I have.
Here is a link to the TaxAct web site.

--- Comment #4 from chris319 c319chris@aol.com --- It's more a question of what doesn't happen when the Import Return function is selected. Under Wine, the program does not open a file requester which allows the user to find and import a previous year's tax return as is the case when the program is run under Windows.

--- Comment #5 from Steve Arnold nerdboy@gentoo.org --- Is there any progress on this? I don't have windoze and I'm running out of time... (I'm about to buy that version but I'd like to know if it's a complete waste) Thanks.
