Hi:

I am new to WINE, so sorry for the dumb question. Has anyone tried to use QuickBooks on WINE with Ubuntu?

Thanks,

John

Looks like it:

When you wonder "has anyone ever tried N application in Wine?", try the AppDB first.

I have tried with the recent build release and the install hung near the
end at the "Starting Service" stage. There is an account package which
a lot of Linux users seem to recommend, it's called GNU Cash but for
someone like you and I who are use to Quickbooks, the program can feel
overwhelming due to it's lack of a nice GUI interface.

Something you may want to do if you have a second PC or Laptop is do
what I am doing. I have my laptop running Windows next to my linux
desktop. I have Quickbooks installed on the Windows and GNU Cash on the
Linux this way I can still create my invoices and teach myself GNU Cash
at the same time rather than constantly rebooting between Windows and Linux.
