Visual Basic 6 app, using excel.

[mattpixel]

Hi everybody! My name is matt, sorry for my english it's too bad. and i'm tryning to run a visual6 app on lucid(ubuntu) using wine.

Well, my app creates an excel file and write 3 rows in the worksheet4 of this file. In windows the app runs great, but when i try to use in linux with wine the app don't create the excel file and dont show any error.

The message on the terminal is:

Code: Select all

fixme:actctx:parse_depend_manifests Could not find dependent assembly L"Microsoft.Windows.Common-Controls" (6.0.0.0)

I install windows common controls but it doesn't work. I check for: 1)-the folder have permissions for read/write and the folder exits.

Some ideas?

Thanks for you time!!!

Cheers!

maybe a bug in wine?

you could try if using native dlls helps. A wild guess:

Do 'winetricks mfc42'

Then run the app by: 'WINEDLLOVERRIDES="oleaut32=n" wine app_name.exe' (or set oleaut32.dll to native in winecfg)
