Hi,

I want install office 2007 to my ubuntu 8.04. (quide (http://samanathon.com/how-to-install-microsoft-office-2007-in-ubuntu-804/)).

I install wine, winetricks change DLL, but if I click on setup.exe on Office CD a get alert - Bad format. What is wrong?

Sorry, my english is bad :)

Try Crossover Pro, but you gotta pay for it. I think they have a trial.

Have you seriously tried OOo 3?

Even though some customers require me to use M$ Office, I find the migration from MS Office 2003 to OOo3 is a lot easier than to Office 2007. Try to find the button for 'convert text to table' in 2007... (it was a right-click in 2003, and just about is in OOo3).

But if you really have to use 2007, then I would also try CrossOver Pro.
