"das Programm - bis jetzt Freeware-, ist High-End unter den Hornsimus: http://www.users.bigpond.com/dmcbean/Setup.exe, 400 kB Ich habe wine in etlichen Versionen bis zur 0.9.26 probiert, auf Debian und Mepis (ubuntu), auch Crossover von 4.2 bis zum Beta 6.3a. Es geht nicht... Bitte helft mir. Wenn hornresp funktioniert kann ich endlich die XP-Partition löschen. "
I tried running the app. It's a 16 bit vb3 app (!), but what the heck, we should be able to run it. After it puts up its splash screen, it puts up a "Invalid property value" dialog, and terminates.
Googling around a bit, I saw that error message might be vb related: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/129934 http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread14231.html
So perhaps it's a font problem... and sure enough, there are some font-related bits right before the error in the log. I'll attach the log.
