I have a VB prog (see www.badcomp.co.uk) which I spent a long time getting working under Wine and fixed all the oleaut32 Var* routines it used. However if you look at that dll, there are still a huge number of stubs. Additionally the date/time handling is (was, anyway) pretty useless. I would strongly recommend if anyone starts writing VB testcases they try and exercise the Variant cases as well as the standard types (...and no, I dont have time!)
VB Window Icons dont work in the wine tree - Marcus sent me a fix for OleLoadPictureEx which solves the problem but he never submitted it to the wine tree (I have a copy, but not of the license it was under). Also, Icons containing transparency dont work for me either, but thats not a vb thing, I guess.
It has been committed to CVS now.
However, most of those VB apps appear to try to load PICTYPE_ICON, which we do not support yet.
Ciao, Marcus
