> The same problem with Wine 20050720 compiled with source...

Ok I can reproduce the problem: Saving does not work in Origin6/German,
installed and run on Wine-2005-07-25 (SUSE build). I seemingly did not check
thoroughly enough. :-(

It works with the nightly builds of CodeWeavers' CrossOver Office (pre-5.0),
which contains a possibly hackish fix for that (other fixes they tend to merge
with [GPL] Wine immediately). (Nightlies are not publically available, CXO5 will
be sold next month. I'm sure, CW's staff would release their patch/create a fix,
if on can pin-point the problem, which will be really hard though.)

I have an interesting observation though: If I use Wine 20050725 to run Origin
installed by CXO, I can save. This indicates some install-time rather than
run-time problems.

Before 2005-07-20 I unsuccessfully tried DCOM9x only at run time. Can someone
try the following:
- Install DCOM98 or DCOM95
- Install Origin 6
- Run Origin 6
If this solves the problem then we know for sure that it is a DCOM/OLE problem.
If not, we need to find out more.

I'm willing to do some debugging - but only till the end of next week (then I'm
away for vacations.)
