View Full Version : Wine won't load native DLLs

I am trying to get an app working (Tax Calc). There seems to be a problem with the builtin version of shdocvw.dll so I want to try it using the native version. However I get

err:ole:COMPOBJ_DllList_Add couldn't load in-process dll L"shdocvw.dll"

I assume this means Wine cannot find the dll even though I have it in both the system32 folder and the program's own folder.

I am using Ubuntu 8.04 and Wine 1.0. Any suggestions why Wine won't load this DLL?

Did you apply a native library override for the DLL in winecfg?

Yes, native only

Based on past test results at Wine's Application Database, TaxCalc doesn't work in Wine:

That was my test results done a long time ago using just builtin libraries. (I'm also the appdb maintainer for taxcalc!). I'm trying to tackle the issues with taxcalc now the new 2008 version is available. Once I know which DLLs don't work with builtin, I will start reporting the bugs they throw up.
