Microsoft Money

What works

Update of previous results but now using wine version 1.7.31.

Previous tests used wine 1.7.17

Results pretty much the same.

Installs ok in a "clean" wine environment.

Program started but "froze" at start splash screen. On clicking with the mouse it crash dumped.

If install, using winetricks, ie6 have quite a lot of program functionality.

Basic "money" type operations tested all seem to work.

What does not

During the installation I couldn't read the "I accept" and "Cancel" text in the text boxes. "I accept" is left hand most text box. "Cancel" is right hand text box. Program installed fine when left most text box "I accept" was selected.

Program as installed in a clean wine environment would not run.

If install (using winetricks) ie6, have quite a lot of program functionality, but certain operations can cause the program to crash:

msmoney runs. On a quick test two issues were seen, as previously reported at WineHQ:
 * Drop down navigation menu hangs application. This is the main "browser" drop down box in the main menu bar. All other dropdown boxes seemed to work ok.
 * Application does not terminate properly on exit.  Needs to be manually killed.
   The GUI exited, but needed a -c in the terminal window to stop the program.
