How do I point Wine to native DLL's?

[trommas]

Hi!

When installing Wine with "Add/Remove application", there is a comment: "Wine can emulate win dll's, but can also use native dll's" I have winxp on a separate partition, how do I tell Wine to use all the native DLL's?

Hopefully I can run more win apps if I could benefit from my native DLL's...

I know you need to point to them in winecfg somewhere...let me see if I can find where I found out how to do it.
It was on WINEs website

well, first off all, copy the DLL files you need off of your windows partition. and put them in your .wine/drive_c/windows/system32 folder.

then run winecfg at the terminal and click libraries.
type in all the dll's you want to override.

click ok. and your done.
