    Problem in installing MSoffice 2007 in ubuntu13.04 through wine

    Hello,
    I am trying to install msoffice 2007 on ubuntu 13.04 with wine version 1.6(added by ppa). Everytime following all the advice written in how-to's I reach at only one outcome-"Runtime error." and when I try to get more information from wine it doesn't respond-just empty window.
    Here is the terminal output for error (I pressume so).
    Code:
    wine setup.exe 
    wine: Unhandled exception 0x40000015 in thread 9 at address 0x7bc30073:0x30029af7 (thread 0009), starting debugger...

    Any advice/suggestions/guidance in installing is highly welcome.

    thanks and regards

    The best advice I can give is to review the how-to over at winehq.org. If that doesn't work, as the maintainer for help there.
    Also, between attempts, be certain to mv or wipe the ~/.wine/ directory.

    Why you dont install open office or just use already builded Libre Office? It supports MS office commands. :/

    http://www.howtogeek.com/171565/how-...fice-on-linux/ was just published today. Might help.

    80% of the time, there is no way to use LO or OO instead of MSO. Examples:
    * working in a team with other companies using MSO (edits, notes, comparisons fail, fonts are different pagination is different - re-re-re-reformatting will kill everyone's productivity)
    * when the output doc format is contractually required to be 100%, MSO files
    * when there are OCX or other addons that are required for use, but only work in MSO
    * when you need to embed Microsoft-only objects, files, into documents. I've never gotten MS-Visio diagrams to embed into anything except MSO.

    If you work alone - use whatever you like.
    If you work in groups of people from small companies, use whatever the team decides.
    If you work with a Fortune 50 company as the client, get over it, use MSO.

    BTW, I use LO for everything that I can. I prefer the old-style menus - hate the ribbon bar. When working with a team, the reasons able are why I suck it up and use MSO. Sometimes there is NO choice.

    I need it for MS presentaion which OO/LO lacks terribly.

    That is precisely the reasons why I want it running in wine. While I have also started to think of installing it in VMplayer with xp installed as I didn't see it runing well in wine for many.
