I got Yardi Professional (the low-end version of the products at http://www.yardi.com) running under Wine, at least with its sample database! And it doesn't look bad. I guess someone with a real Yardi installation will just have to try it sometime soon to see if it works on real data, with the data stored on a network drive.
Forgot the details. To install and run it, you currently need to copy a number of DLLs from a real windows system. When I run, I use the commandline wine --dll compobj,storage,ole2,ole32=n Y.EXE Same thing when installing.
FWIW, wine --dll storage,ole2,ole32=n Y.EXE or wine --dll compobj,ole2,ole32=n Y.EXE gives the warning "loading builtin ole32.dll, but native version already present. Expect trouble." and fails.
wine Y.EXE fails with an exception in 16 bit code, possibly because wine's compobj dll doesn't implement the comarshalling interface. I've been told that's expected at this point.
