Output when running Word 2000 from the command line
I'm running wine 0.9.47 on my office desktop PC. Installing MS Word 2000 there
worked, but when starting it from the GNOME menu, an error message appears
(almost hidden behind the splash window) (re-translated from German): "The
Windows registry has found that one or more needed files are damaged or
missing. To resolve this problem, please execute the Word setup program. [OK]"
On pressing okay, the Word window appears for a fraction of a second (enough
time to type two letters if you're fast), then closes. Re-installing does not
seem to work, it does not solve the problem.
When starting it from a shell, the same happens, only that you cannot type in
the word window which is visible significantly longer (well over a second). I
attached the error output.
On my laptop, which has wine 0.9.46, the very same version of Word runs
platinum-like.
