    TaxAct 2006 Problem



    TaxAct 2006 installed perfectly, and at the end of the install I was given the option to start the program. I said yes, and the program ran just fine.

    However, when I tried to run the program separately, I got this error:
    root@PC1:~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/2nd Story Software/TaxACT 2006# ./TaxAct06.exe
    run-detectors: unable to find an interpreter for ./TaxAct06.exe

    Any idea how I can help the program find an "interpreter"?

    You don't execute the file like that, use

    wine TaxAct06.exe

    Thanks, Pablo. I was thinking like a Windows weenie at the time, I guess. It's great that TaxAct now works perfectly in wine, without even the necessity of copying over some DLLs.
