I think you'll need to use CrossoverOffice from Codeweavers for this - it officially supports PP97, IIRC. It does, however, cost money, but you can try it for a limited period for free to see whether it does what you need. I use it myself and it's excellent. The money buys you much better management tools than standard wine comes with, and the ability to use MSOffice properly.

Thank you for the advice. I will probably download the demo and try. I really have been wanting it for about a year or so maybe I will treat myself. Marcia
