SOLVED

Something like this has probably been asked before, but the search feature isn't giving me anything useful.

I'm trying to install a program called RavenDice using Wine. When I do this, I get an error saying I'm missing a DLL. Here's my error

Is there anywhere I can download this DLL? If so, where do I put the DLL? in the Windows folder of the virtual C: Drive?

That DLL is part of Visual Basic Runtime, specifically VB6. You can install that using winetricks (http://wiki.winehq.org/winetricks).

I got winetricks and installed VB6 runtime. The program attempts to open now, but I'm getting another error message now.

Is there something else I can install via Winetricks to get the "Mscomctl.ocx" file?

EDIT: Solved. Downloaded the file from http://www.ascentive.com/support/new/images/lib/MSCOMCTL.OCX and put the file in the system32 folder of the C: drive.


Thanks for the help

For future reference, winetricks can install that for you. If you check the page I linked to in my original post, it lists all the things winetricks can do. Items 8 and 9 on the list of packages it can install include the ActiveX control modules you needed.
