winecfg in a terminal brings up the configuration application. I notice
that the history is appearing in the "drives" tag i.e. various USB
sticks that have been run at different times. There are no error
messages in the terminal.

If I try to run "wine winword.exe" (MS word 2000), I get the message:

wine: cannot find L"C:\\windows\\system32\\WINWORD.EXE"

If I make a symlink to WINWORD.EXE in the system32 directory (which is
what it looks like it is trying to find) and run the command, then I
get:

err:module:import_dll Library MSO9.DLL (which is needed by 
L"C:\\windows\\system32\\WINWORD.EXE") not found
err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for 
L"C:\\windows\\system32\\WINWORD.EXE" failed, status c0000135

I originally installed Wine from the standard Hardy repo, not the PPA. I
suppose it would have been version 1.0 or close to that.

Output of dpkg -s is:
$ dpkg -s wine

I have only the MS Office 2000 suite installed. Maybe it would be simpler just 
to reinstall that.
