Additional Comments
If you are not installing Access, Word (and other Office 97 apps) can now be installed with default Wine settings. Installing Access requires the workaround described in bug #3689. I tested running Word in a virtual desktop, but that caused the menus and toolbars to freeze sporadically; there were no such problems when running in a regular window.
