Star Alliance Timetable tool does not run under wine

[Rolf Leggewie]

I tried to install and then run the Star Alliance Timetable tool (downloaded from http://www.startimetable.com/star.exe) in wine but got an error along the following lines on my uptodate lucid system.

"This version of TravelDesk is not Internet Explorer 8.0 compatible.

If you are pleased with the performance of Internet Explorer 8.0;please
let us know as we review options for version compatibility."

The problem is tracked upstream as http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12518 Setting to confirmed status.

"The StarAlliance airline network used to have a Windows 3.x-ish timetable program that worked very well under Wine. Now they replaced it by something more fancy and Wine (0.9.59) cannot handle it. The application installs fine, starts up, but then it's frozen. You cannot enter any text in the search boxes and you cannot move the scrollbars."

Someone got it going a bit, with a crapton of native DLLs:
"hi , i gave this thing a try and the search buttom worked for me using various windows dllls. I copied the following dlls over from my xp partition:
shdocvw.dll
 shlwapi.dll
urlmon.dll
mshtml.dll
mshtmled.dll
mshtml.tlb
jscript.dll
MSLS31.DLL
mlang.dll

Set shlwapi,mshtml,shdocvw,urlmon,mlang to native.
Do 'regsvr32 mshtmled.dll'

I was able to search for flights from one place to another, but i guess a lot needs to be investigated more."

I'll attach a +relay trace. Not sure what component to file this under, considering how many DLLs are affected, though it may only need one or two of them. Setting to shdocvw for now.

Interesting as I received the following error when I installed it on Darwine based on 0.9.59:

'This versio of TravelDesk is not Internet Explorer 7.0 beta 2 compatible.

If you are pleased with the performance of Internet Explorer 7.0 beta 2;please let us know as we review options for version compatibility."

No native dlls installed.

Still present in git.

Removing deprecated CVS/GIT version tag. Please retest in current git. If the bug is still present in today's wine, but was not present in some earlier version of wine, please update version field to earliest known version of wine that had the bug. Thanks!
