I need to set up a machine with Linux (Ubuntu or Mint) and install MS Access on it using wine (MS Office programs that I worked with before, Word and Excel, worked in wine just fine).
But I'm facing unexpected problems: user can't follow the http:// hyperlink, for example http://google.com : when user clicks on it, access just shows dialog window:
microsoft office access can't follow the hyperlink
I tried to follow the hyperlink in MS Word and Excel, in both of them it works (when user clicks on a hyperlink, native linux firefox is opened with the given link, everything works nice)
I tried both Wine 1.6 and 1.7, result is the same.
I tried to check it with strace, as follows:
strace -ff -o trace wine /home/user/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Microsoft\ Office/Office12/MSACCESS.EXE
then I've reproduced the problem with non-opening hyperlink http://google.com, closed MS Access, grep-ped across the trace files for google, hyperlink, nothing is found. Wine's own output is not useful, too (no special message is generated when user clicks a hyperlink)
Does anyone have some idea what could I try to make it work?
