I haven't tried running MarcEdit in Wine. I've been amazed at what Wine will run.

Thanks for the email. Quick answer: it doesn't (or at least not when we last tried), something to do with versions of .NET -- and I do have Wine installed to use this trusty old Eudora email client which I've been using since 1989 in various incarnations :=}

A couple of years ago we tried to use Office97 (we've never had a more
recent version) to do just that -- but ended up using
OpenOffice|LibreOffice to open and save the Excel files as tab-delimited
.csv files. Excel appeared to have difficulties with UTF8 and special
characters.

Disclaimer:  Terry Reece has done an apparently marvelous job developing
MarcEdit; we've never been able to run recent versions as our old Windows
laptop is more of a museum exhibit than a useful tool.  I would strongly
suggest joining the list at <http://metis3.gmu.edu/cgi-bin/wa?A0=MARCEDIT-L>.

As an aside, has anyone managed to get MarcEdit to function on a Linux
box?  We have failed miserably.
