Bug ID: 50615
           Summary: 0024:fixme:ole:ICreateTypeInfo2_fnDeleteFuncDesc
           Product: Wine
           Version: 6.0
          Hardware: x86-64
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: ole32
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

I was trying to run Excel 2007. When removing controls from UserForm we are
prompted with a nice "Not implemented" message box. With a log we see wine
saying stub on 0024:fixme:ole:ICreateTypeInfo2_fnDeleteFuncDesc.

Without this function Excel 2007 cannot remove any controls from a UserForm

I tried winetricks ole32, but instead of fixing the problem it created EVEN
more problems:
- Excel now crashes when trying to repair any document.
- Opening a file always results in Excel complaining file is corrupted.
- When loading Excel, Excel now complains it cannot register the builtin
controls and a wine log shows a lot of UIDs not able to be created.

Support for that comes from oleaut32.dll, but yes, using native modules for
that is not advisable. We should fix that in Wine implementation instead.

patch

If you're able to do your own wine build, please try this patch. It will need
some tests before I can submit it.

I'm not sure I can build wine. I have an Ubuntu based system and I have other
software using wine. I do not want to risk crashing other wine software.

Also after looking at the building page of wine this sounds like a nightmare of
packages to install where of course we are not given the correct names for
Ubuntu APT. I cannot install another OS on this computer as my distribution
(Pop OS) is the most reliable running under my hardware. The native Ubuntu is
buggy as hell when it comes to graphics (NVIDIA is used). Arch and other
similar OSs are absolutely unusable: motherboard believes GRUB is not bootable
and complains no OS is installed leading to no other option as a SUPER GRUB 2
Disk to boot the OS. In addition setting up graphics is just an absolute
wonderful nightmare on anything not Ubuntu (even on ubuntu it's bugged).

If there's a way I build a custom wine it's on a VM but I don't have enough
time now to install a VM with source wine and O2007.

This particular function is in now, e3ef9b5426900b21209bb14c3d18caaf52e57f60.
Wine 6.2 will be the first release to contain it. After that we'll see what it
needs next.

Thank you I will try a source build of the new future 6.2 then. I just finally
got a Arch Linux VM working for testing.

I just tested it and it now accepts to remove components however this new
version of wine causes even more problems:
- No more text/caption is rendered on controls anymore
- Once a control is removed running the VBA macro complains that a library does
no longer exist

Some weird thing happened: text rendering only works when EXCEL is launched
from terminal not working from Thunar.

Nevermind now it works. Will test again the weird bug when a control is
removed.

All right now everything is fixed it seem that when Excel is installed for the
first time you need to launch it 5-10 times on the newer Wine in order for
Excel to no longer fail rendering text and/or weird missing lib bugs.

So removing controls now completely works with wine 6.2? If so we should close
this.

Yes it did work last time I checked in master. I will re-test once this goes
into the official WineHQ stable APT repositories but this time I will be on the
host system no more VM.
