[plug] WINE issue trying to install cashbook complete

Hello,

I'm trying to install cashbook complete
(http://www.acclaimsoftware.com.au/) with wine 20040716.

I had to create the install disks on a win32 boxen and am trying to
install from these.

There is a file on one of the install disks called lzexpand.dl_
The problem is that the cashbook complete installer running under WINE
cannot expand this file and copy it to the fake windows system folder.
The message it gets is "Access denied". I've just setting all the
permissions on the install disks to 777 but not luck.

msexpand will not extract the file because it is NOT an MS-compressed
file. File shows the following:

file lzexpand.dl_
lzexpand.dl_: MS-DOS executable (EXE), OS/2 or MS Windows

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can get the installer to continue
past this gotcha and to the next one?

regards,
