Google doesn't show any hits for that UUID, so it's hard to say
what's going on without knowing more about the app
(or knowing Portugese

You might try installing mdac27 or art2kmin with winetricks,
there's some small chance the class you're missing is
a Microsoft database runtime. e.g.
wget http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks
sh winetricks mdac27
or
sh winetricks art2kmin

You might also try installing dcom98, though that is touchy and risky:
sh winetricks dcom98

Good luck and let us know what happens...

Hello,

Here are the relevant registry entries from a Windows 2000 SP4 system with all patches applied:
1. HKCR\CLSID\{854D7AC5-BC3D-11D0-B421-00A0C90F9DC4}
- Default: "VsHelpServices Class"
2. HKCR\CLSID\{854D7AC5-BC3D-11D0-B421-00A0C90F9DC4}\InprocServer32
- Default: "D:\\Program Files\\Common Files\\Microsoft Shared\\vs98\\VSHELP.DLL"
- ThreadingModel: "Apartment"
3. HKCR\CLSID\{854D7AC5-BC3D-11D0-B421-00A0C90F9DC4}\ProgID
- Default: "VsHelpServices.1"
4. HKCR\CLSID\{854D7AC5-BC3D-11D0-B421-00A0C90F9DC4}\Programmable
- Default:
5. HKCR\CLSID\{854D7AC5-BC3D-11D0-B421-00A0C90F9DC4}\VersionIndependentProgID
- Default: "VsHelpServices"

There are other entries which should exist as well - e.g. the CLSID {854D7ACA-BC3D-11D0-B421-00A0C90F9DC4}.

I'm about to build a Wine installation to (try to) run Office 2000, so I'll post another message if I find the entries appearing.

He wrote me back and said that using mdac27 and dcom98 did the trick.
