John, Please keep me informed on your progress too. I was able to get Legacy to boot under Wine but every new window I opened created the need for more tweaking of Wine. I had good success with RootsMagic. The program ran OK but the GUIs were screwed up in some views. Crossover Office runs MSOffice very well.
