Question about WINE

Can I do Visual Basic developement in WINE? Will Visual Basic Enterprise work from within WINE? I would like to switch to a *nix for awhile, but can't not do Visual Basic. I am taking classes for it😱 I know I could dual boot, but if I install both, I will never leave windows. Trust me, I've done it before...😉

Link works. Excellent info, even if there is no how to, my basic question was answered, it seems like it will be possible. Guess I need to learn how to use samba and wine this weeked...phew. I do have one more question about wine. If I install something and it coughs up a lung asking for a specific dll say... xxxxxx.dll, can I go to my windows box and copy the dll from there or will it need to be registered with wine? I guess I'll be finding out.

To my understanding (and I dont have much with WINE) you just need to stick it in the proper place. Take a look at some of the WINE docs though, this may be covered. I havent had the time/need to play with wine, but Id like to have free agent again, so Ill get around to it eventually 😛
 
I was looking at some of your posts about BSD. Does WINE work in BSD? Would I be better off using BSD that Linux? What would be the advantages?

It depends on which BSD. sml seems to be pretty smooth with FreeBSD, OpenBSD is my personal choice.
