    i've just tried running a windows program (custom database (Access 2 database, written in VB3) and CrossOver installs it ok (i think) then i get an error message about running a VB OBDC application using the SQL server, i must first update OBDC catalog (INSTCAT.SQL) using SQL Server ISQL utility, i've tried seaching for both INSTCAT.SQL and ISQL but to no avail, what am i missing ?

    EDIT: recieved this error message: program start failed 1 3000 reserved error (-8194); there is no message for this error

    hope anyone can help, please

    Hey, I found something on the net, which might help you further. I 've got a website which tells about all the errors from 3 to 3299, which includes your ones as well. "3000 Reserved error ( ); there is no message for this error."

    From Microsoft website I got this
    8194 The database is opened by user '|2' on machine '|1'. You
    can't open this database exclusively.

    [link=http://www.imt.net/~joe/matt/program/vb/Tutorials/MicroKB/q113/9/53.TXT]Here is one more place where I found -1894, look at the subject and see if its useful or not[/link]


    Actually, I don't know whats your problem actually. I just used your error thing to search the answer and comes out with these.

    Does Crossover Office use WINE? :confused:

    If not, you may want to use WINE (Win Emulator) to see if it yields better results.

    Download WINE and run wincfg from the terminal to configure it.

    Then download WINE TOOLS to install programs
