Some people have reported success running Publisher 97 and I
think 2000 under cxoffice, but it's not officially supported.
I'd join the discuss_AT_wine.codeweavers.com list and poke around
the archives a bit....

To get this at least marginally audio related, I have
successfully run Buzz (sort of like a tracker with aspirations
towards doing almost everything Jack does, but only for windows
and orphaned for a few years) under cxoffice with good results,
albeit only to get some .wav files of the stuff I'd already done
in it so I wouldn't lose the data.
