Summary: MS Access will not open any wizard. Product: Wine Version: 1.3.8 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: major Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: de.techno@gmail.com
After creating a table, going to the create tab, you'll find lots of wizards... like the form wizard, report wizard etc... none of them work.
A window opens with the title frui_frmMain with the next, previous cancel etc.. buttons visible and that's about it... access hangs completely and has to be forced quited.
This appears to be a popular bug.

Before filing bugs, you need to test in plain Wine.
That said, I can reproduce this in plain Wine. However, in order to get around bug 18889 and start Access at all it is necessary to either manually extract the manifest from acedao.dll or edit msaccess.exe.manifest to remove the dependency on acedao.dll. That's obviously not the normal way to run the app, and this bug may be invalid because of it.

--- Comment #7 from dE de.techno@gmail.com 2010-12-07 10:05:54 CST --- The thing that playonlinux downloads is a static build of plane wine (or is it patched in some way?)... I've used that directly. BTW package managers can patch wine before compile, like what they do with OOo.
I did that msaccess.exe.manifest workaround.

--- Comment #8 from dE de.techno@gmail.com 2010-12-07 10:07:35 CST --- You mean bug 18889 is the cause of this issue?

--- Comment #9 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net 2010-12-07 10:57:30 CST --- Bug 18889 is not the cause of this bug; it is the reason you need a workaround to start Access in the first place. That is why this bug depends on it--you have to get past that bug to get to this one. As to whether the workaround could be what's causing the problem you reported, that I don't know, which is why I haven't actually marked this as invalid, but merely raised the question. Someone with greater knowledge than I needs to make that call.
As for PlayOnLinux, while I understand they are trying to clean up their act, they have a history of using patched versions of Wine without letting the user know. Users of distro packages with unapproved patches are also told to retest in plain Wine. The best practice is to test in plain Wine compiled from current git, as that will also confirm that the problem hasn't already been fixed.

--- Comment #13 from Jonathan jcv1897@gmail.com 2013-03-01 07:49:35 CST --- I had the same problem. Templates wouldn't import and wizards would be blank and frozen.
I have wine 1.4.1 installed and winetricks. I added a manual override the oleauth32 dll in winecfg, and ran winetricks vb6run jet40.
That solved the problem for me.

--- Comment #18 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net --- Yes. Clicking on the Report Wizard does nothing. Clicking on the Query Wizard does bring up a New Query dialog that allows you to select from four queries, but choosing one does nothing.
