How to Install Microsoft Office 2007 on Ubuntu Intrepid
This tutorial will explain How to Install Microsoft Office 2007 on Ubuntu Intrepid
Install Wine 1.16 from the old .deb archive
Open terminal and type the following command
winecfg
in a terminal and make sure the Windows version is set to XP
Run your Office setup in wine.
Using the command line, cd to the directory where your Office setup files are and run:
wine setup.exe
Using the GUI: Navigate to your Office setup files, right click on the setup.exe file and choose open with “wine windows program loader.”
Click customize in the setup window and disable any features you do not want, and change any settings (name, organization, etc.), then click install.
Once the installation is complete close the window, and navigate to /home/username/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Microsoft\ Office/Office12 and run any office programs to test (WINWORD.EXE, EXCEL.EXE, POWERPNT.EXE, MSPUB.EXE, etc.).
Re-enable the wine repository (steps to install repository here: http://www.winehq.org/download/deb), and update wine to the latest version.
Now just create links to these executables for easy access. Type this in the command box when making links to wine programs
wine “/pathtoexecutable/”
(replace “pathtoexecutable” with a valid file path).
