Someone help me. I'll pay.

I need to Port a windows app. written/compiled in Visual Basic 6 that I
developed over to Linux using WINE. I like the OS be installed in VMWare.

Here's what I want. A VMWare file that contains a Linux OS with my
windows App. installed and running correctly under WINE or sometime
similiar.




I like someone who know how to use WINE.
I like someone who know how to use VMWare.
I like someone who knows how to port windows app. to Linux before.

I need someone who can use the smallest installation of Linux and have my
Visual Basic app. running on it using WINE or something similiar


Please email me if you can help. thanks in advance.

Mmm....

Have you tried to use RealBasic to import your VisualBasic application
?
If you are lucky your application source can be imported on RealBasic
and compiled as native code on Linux platform.

See www.realbasic.com and try.

Are you sure that really work on WINE ?

Can I try to do that but I need your app. What this app do exactly ?

The first and hardest part is getting your Visual Basic 6 app
working well in Wine. I'm helping improve VB6 support under
Wine right now. The thing for you to do is test your app
with the latest wine (0.9.16 right now) and report any problems
you find, then work with the wine developers to test their fixes.
