How to install Microsoft Office 2010 on Linux with


Wine
I installed MS Office Professional 2010 on my Ubuntu computers and
it's working fluently.
It is a nerve breaking experience for a Linux new bee to work with
open-office for documentation works than their favourite MS Office.
New interface and new formats of open office makes them reluctant to
take it as a first choice. So this post is for those who are tired of
rebooting your system to make small changes in the documentations.
Now you dont want to reboot your system to get windows and MS
Office to work on your documents. You can do it from any linux
distribution with wine.
To help further Wine development please consider purchasing a copy
of CrossOver from CodeWeavers.

the security to none in every option and uncheck the Enable Protected

is with Powerpoint which is not very dependable.

I am very excited to install Office 2010 on my Ubuntu 10.04
system, but I am having a little trouble. I have updated Wine
and installed all the listed libraries, etc... However, after I open
the Office 2010 installer I cannot enter my product key
(clicking inside the window or the form box does not allow me
to type into the box). Any ideas?

Thanks for the notes. I may have to give it a try.
As far as the "Linux Experience"...
After about 4 years of not having any Microsoft software on my
computer... I've come to the realization that perhaps Linux is
just more of a hassle than it is worth with some things.
I've downloaded a spreadsheet that I'd like to use in
OpenOffice/LibreOffice. They open it just fine, but the macros
are a nightmare. I miss little features like type-ahead, giving
choices for fields in records, or arguments to functions, all of
which lack in Star Basic.
I suppose that is the true "Linux Experience". 90% is smooth
sailing, 10% just isn't.
