The test results you have selected are very old and may not represent the current state of Wine.
Selected Test Results (selected in 'Test Results' table below)
What works
Opening, Saving, Charts, and all other normal functions.
What does not
Macros, and Add-ins that depend on them (e.g. Solver doesn't work), the Help doesn't launch. The dialog boxes for "Highlighting cell rules" is a bit broken.
After installing, set riched20.dll to native (needed for some dialog boxes and numbers on graphs to display properly). It is not necessary to install the dll, as Office installs its own version. Do not set this override globally unless you have Office installed in a separate wineprefix.

When i click on File->Open the application waits for long and thn a crash report is shown.
When one document(excel or word) is open and when i click on another document it never opens up.
I then close it. and then when i try to open the another document. The excel application comes up, but it never opens that worksheet.
